DESCRIPTION
This manual page documents briefly the convertlit command.

convertlit is a program to convert Microsoft Reader format eBooks [LIT] into an open format. convertlit supports three modes of operation:

1.  Explosion: expanding a LIT file into an OEBPS compliant package, that is the original XML / HTML source.

2.  Downconverting: converts to DRM1 format, also known as sealing the LIT file.

3.  Inscribing: similar to #2, this adds a label, or inscription, to the ebook to mark that it belongs to you.

OPTIONS
A summary of options is included below. For a complete description, run the program without any arguments.

-d  Disable creating multiple subdirectories.

-h  Show summary of options.

-k   /path/to/keys.txt
    The DRM5 key file is assumed to be called keys.txt and located in the current directory. If not, use this option to instruct convertlit where to find the key file.
