I need a good conversion application to convert ebooks file (.bok) to a pdf or a word document. Anyone use any reliable ones?


:w:
 
I never even knew a file such as .bok even existed. Have you tried google?
 
^ yeah and I found the way to view such file. I need a converter to save the time and convert any book to pdf or word.
 
I use openoffice.org so far I have been able to conver any file to PDF using it. Neat free program, does everything MS Office Suite does and more and it is my favorite price: FREE

Check it out

http://www.openoffice.org/

To be honest it takes sometime to learn how to use it, but it is worth the effort.
 
ok sister try to open your .bok file by this viewer and tell me what happened
saaid.net/book/p/viewer.exe

dont worry it is a trusted link
and if there is no objection try to give me the file you try to open or someone like it
 
actually it is used to viewing books with these extensions related to another program but I hope it works with you also

Asalam Alykom
JazakumAllah Khair for helping I downloaded that viewr but the problem is that I couldn't find any saved .bok files in my PC as I re-installed OS recently and didn't get any backup of those .bok files.
I tried to search for some on the interent from the sites *I remembered* that I got them from such as saaid.net but found that all books there are either in pdf or doc formats! maybe they changed their formats? I dunno

anyways, I will keep that view stored on my PC and whenever I come across any .bok file I will try to view it using that viewer and will let you how it will work.

JazakumAllah khair again, I really appreciate your help.

JazakAllah khair, I just downloaded it and could only read a pdf file in English....the choices are many there and I can tell its a very good application. Have you ever read an Arabic book there? I tried to open the .bok file that I got from seek-paradise but couldnt get the suitable 'character set" to open it. All what got are some random characters that means nothing.

If you have open any Arabic book (.bok) files before, what "Character set" you used? I tried many of them but couldn't get it right.

JazakAllah kahir for the book, I actually tried openning it with the viewer but it didn't work. I am trying now to open it with the application the Woodrow suggested.

Odd, although I never used it to open an arabic Book in .bok format it should be able to associate with any character set you have for PDF. I will try later to see if an additional plug-in is needed
