How to load e-books into my palm?

[Joseph]

I have an iMac running OS 10.3. When I was running OS 9, I used Mac Palm Doc to load e-books into my palm. That doesn't work in 10.3 (or in classic mode.) Can someone please tell me how to get e-books into my palm?

What ebook reader are you using on the Palm?

I have both PalmReader and CSpotRun.

What I really need is something that will convert text files, like those I download from Project Gutenberg, to .pdb files. I have discovered that iSync (on my iMac using OS 10.3) will install .pdb files on the Palm. This was all working fine for me before I upgraded my computer and MacPalmDoc would no longer work for me. Progress!!!

I have a how-to (http://www.bryanshome.netfirms.com/build_palm_reader.html) on my site for doing this. It is not too difficult and produces good Palm Reader formatted eBooks.

Palm Reader eBooks can by sync'd to memory or loaded to the card with a card reader. The card directory is: \palm\books\.
