andrewduckerIn common with the British Royal Family, I get my Christmas traditions from Germany, and thus presents are opened on the 24th of December.
I got books! Many books! Also, an ebook reader so that I can read even more books without carrying around half a ton of Stephenson. Huzzah!
I hope that you're all having a fantastic time, in whatever timezone you're in, and that when you get to celebrate whatever you have to celebrate it that you enjoy it (unless you already celebrated it, in which case I hope it was good).

Date: 2008-12-28 03:24 pm (UTC)I wanted this story. So I tried the epub converter at BookGlutton, which gave me an epub file that crashed the reader. So I tried to print to PDF - but Firefox's printing is _awful_. So I used IE, which worked, but gave me the bar on the left. So I copied a bunch of the source HTML into a file, opened _that_, gave it a title element, printed it to PDF and uploaded it.
And now it's on my reader :->

Date: 2008-12-28 04:17 pm (UTC)What _did_ work was creating a new book on FeedBooks, copying and pasting the HTML into it, and then downloading the preview.
Oh well, at least I have a method that works now!
