I have a pdf file that wont open with PalmPDF. Is there a way or program that can convert a pdf ebook into a format thats readable on either tomeraider, isilo or PalmReader?

Unfortunately PalmPDF does not yet handle encrypted or password protected pdfs to my knowledge. You may have no choice but to open in either the antiquated AdobeReader for Palm after conversion of upgrade to the latest version of Documents to Go 8 Premium.

PalmPDF supports password protected files (it does since several month). Just check the Protected box in the file explorer and you will be asked for the password. PalmPDF only fails for DRM files.

TimothyP: Maybe PalmPDF can convert it to a PalmDOC? Try PalmDOC from the menu. If it fails because of memory reasons, you might download Xpdf and try pdftotext.exe from this package.
