Adobe and ADE DRM
I have scoured the forum and can find no useful information on Adobe or ADE DRM (read removal). Does anyone have any comments/information on this topic?

With due respect to all, I don't believe that removing any DRM is considered "legal", but there is a lot of information available regarding removing DRM from MOBI, as an example. |

I am not aware of any cracks of this DRM.
The copistar program uses what are essentially images of the screen, to build a "scan" of the ebook, see Now that my mobi problem is solved. This isn't cracking the encryption, but might still be considered circumvention. Another recent thread of interest is Porting or new Funtionality, since it includes a report of using a print feature (which isn't often enabled) to extract content. |

Adobe's ePub DRm has been broken. Please see https://www.mobileread.com/forums/sho...d.php?p=359246 for more information.

A de-DRM'd PDF might be convertible to other formats, depending on how it was made in the first place. If nothing else, it could be saved as an RTF or HTML file, which would retain the text formatting and (if it was created in a halfway decent program) paragraph breaks. That file could then be thrown into ebook creator of your choice.
