I followed the 10 steps on the on the Remove DRM from PDB ebook from B&N thread, I keep on getting an error message "ereader2html.py is not recognized as an internal or external command, operable program or batch file".

My input was as follows :
ereader2html.py CinderellaDeal_103752.pdb outdir "MyName" 1234567812345678

I also tried :
python ereader2html.py CinderellaDeal_103752.pdb outdir "MyName" 1234567812345678

I looked through the other thread that is about the the error message but I still can't figure out what I did wrong. Please help thanks!

Just make sure the ereader2html.py has the .py extension as mentioned in the following post:

Thanks for your help so far but I still need help...

After I input:

ereader2html.py CinderellaDeal_103752.pdb outdir "MyName" 1234567812345678

I get this:

eReader2Html v0.09 Copyright <c> 2008 The Dark Reverser
Converts DRMed eReader books to PLM source and Html
Usage:
ereader2html infile.pdb [outdir] “your name” credit_card_number
Note:
If omitted, outdir defaults based on ‘infile.pdb’
Its enough to enter the last 8 digits of the credit card number

What do I do after this?

This is really strange. This should happen if you launch eReader2Html without any parameters.

How exactly do you launch it? Please be as specific as possible.

This is what I did:
1. Install Python.
2. Create directory
3. Downloaded then changed ereader2html.txt to .py
4. Copy ereader2html.py to the directory.
5. Copy ereader.pdb file to the directory.
6. Open command prompt
7. typed cd C:\Users\z\Desktop\ebook hit enter
8. typed ereader2html.py CinderellaDeal_103752.pdb outdir “my name” credit card no hit enter
9. then I get:

Usage:
Ereader2html infile.pdb [outdir] “your name” credit_card_number

I don't really understand what is the problem.

Try to run:
Code:

python ereader2html.py CinderellaDeal_103752.pdb outdir "my name" CCN
If it doesn't help, try to rename your .pdb ebook to 1.pdb and run
Code:

ereader2html.py 1.pdb "my name" CCN
