How to Convert a .DJVU File to a Sony E-book File

Sony Readers don't recognize DJVU files, but EPUB is no problem.

Before you can transfer a DJVU document file onto your Sony Reader, you'll need to convert it into a readable format. The EPUB format is a multi-platform e-book format that your Sony Reader will have no trouble opening. To get your DJVU file to play nicely with your Reader, you'll need some third-party software to bridge the gap. Calibre is a free, open source e-book management system that can both convert the file and transfer it to your Reader.

Instructions

1. Launch Calibre. Select "Library." Drag and drop your DJVU file from your local files into Calibre to add it to the Library.

2. Select the DJVU file and click the "Convert Books" button at the top of the Calibre window. A pop-up dialog will appear.

3. Open the "Output Format" drop-down menu in the upper-right corner of the window. Select "EPUB." Click "OK" to convert the file. Return to the Library after the conversion is complete.

4. Plug your Sony Reader into your computer using the included USB cable. Calibre will inform you once it has detected the device. Select the converted file within your library and click "Send to Device." The EPUB file will be sent to your Sony Reader.
