    i havent read the last harry potter book and im too lazy to carry that monster around with me(thats why) so i was wondering if anybody knows where i can get books in txt format so i can just add them to my ds and read them as i see fit, and i always have my ds, but i cant seem to find anything in the line of txt format books...

    the books i want to read are the harry potter series( i wanna re read the other six) and the artemis fowl series which i also want to re read, but i dont want to carry my books around with me everywhere.

    and yes i own all of the artemis fowl and harry potter books so i would not be stealing them.

    any help i could get here would be greatly appreciated, as im trying to get back into reading.
    if anybody decides to help me please pm me if possible.

    You won't find txt books. All e-books are in .pdf format. But after you get those e-books, you can convert them to txt, even though it won't be the same as in .pdf.
    I would give you links to download them, but it would be against the rules since downloading e-books is illegal, even though you already have them.
    But good places are torrent sites, like thepiratebay or mininova, and google of course.

    They...made something like that? Hmm. Only thing I've ever read e-books on is my Kindle.

    I'd imagine a DS screen to be awfully tiny for a book, though.

    actually i have a pdf viewer for my R4's media card. but it sucks...
    but how do i get the pdf's converted to txt?
    select all, copy, paste? does that work?

    and nashida, i have my own custom, modded moonshell theme and they look amazing i actually keep cheat code files in txt format because i prefer to read them there more on moonshell than my computer lol

    Dude, just get the latest paperback version. Have you seen how condensed it is?! D8
    I saw it in a bookstore one day. I thought "What, did they split it into four parts or something?" My mouth almost fell off when I found out that it was the whole book.
    For serious, it's about the same size as the first book. O.O

    No, if you use acrobat reader there is an option in "File.." that says save as txt.
    Or you could just google "pdf to txt" and you'll find what you're looking for.
