Frequently asked questions
How does an FB2 book look after converting to LRF?
The FB2 text and images are compiled into Sony's BBeB (LRF) e-book format with its own pagination, and the text reflows. Rich FB2 formatting is simplified to what BBeB supports.
Why convert FB2 to LRF?
LRF is the format used by the legacy Sony Reader (PRS) hardware, so converting targets those older devices specifically.
What reads an LRF file?
Calibre and the old Sony Reader devices read LRF. The format is obsolete, so for current e-readers EPUB is generally the better target.
What are the caveats?
LRF is a legacy, proprietary binary format with little modern software support, and complex FB2 styling may be simplified. The conversion adds no DRM.
