How to remove DRM from Topaz ebooks:

1. Install Python
2. Open command prompt / terminal and run:
   
   

   python cmbtc_dump_nonK4PC.py -d -o TARGETDIR -p 12345678 YOURTOPAZBOOKNAMEHERE

   where
   - 12345678 - the first 8 characters of your PID
   - "TARGETDIR" - target directory (can be ommited)
   - YOURTOPAZBOOKNAMEHERE - filename of your Topaz ebook (with the .tpz extension)
   
3. Then, again in the command prompt / terminal, run:
   
   

   python gensvg.py TARGETDIR

4. Then create HTML file from the SVG file by running the following in the command line / terminal:
   
   

   python genhtml.py TARGETDIR

   You should get "book.html" file in the TARGETDIR directory.
5. Convert "book.html" to any other format using Calibre.
