Welcome to my e-Sword Pocket PC site. I purchased a Pocket PC on December 1st, 2007, so I am new to this, but as I study out things and figure them out I will post how to do stuff on this website. I am also creating modules for the pocket PC e-Sword program, as well as PDFs, DOCs, and RTFs of Bible Study files.

As I understand things, e-Sword just used normal RTF files for the topics in the Pocket version, so these RTF files do not necessarily have to be opened in e-Sword, just clicking on them in the File explorer will get you basically the same thing. The problem I have is that these RTF files must be converted somehow in Mobile Windows, and that may freeze up your pda until it decides it is finished. When I did this I found the files were not correctly transferred and formatted.

As I uploaded and checked RTF files on my Pocket, the word wrap is a great problem (the lack of it). We are reformatting all of our files so that it will have word wrap and make it easier to read on the Pocket.

After playing around with different formats, I believe that the simple Adobe Acrobat is the best format, allowing a file that does not have to be panned left and right to read, and allowing pictures. So all of these book files (like a Topic file) are actually pdfs and you will need to get the free pdf reader for Pocket PCs. By using this format, I feel that less work can be done in formatting and the formatted pdf files can be used on desktops, laptops, Palms, and PocketPC without any extra work, so I am putting everything into that format.
