\fBconvertlit\fP is a program to convert Microsoft Reader format eBooks
[\fILIT\fP] into an open format.  \fBconvertlit\fP supports three modes
of operation:

that is the original \fIXML\fP / \fIHTML\fP source.
.IP 2.
\fBDownconverting\fP: converts to \fIDRM1\fP format, also known as
\fBsealing\fP the \fILIT\fP file.
.IP 3.
\fBInscribing\fP: similar to #2, this adds a label, or \fIinscription\fP,
to the ebook to mark that it belongs to you.
.SH OPTIONS
A summary of options is included below.
For a complete description, run the program without any arguments.

where to find the key file.
