It's so long ago I can't remember the details.  I paid for it and 
downloaded the file from the B&N website and it was in a proprietary 
format with DRM locking.  I just searched around until I found a way of 
unlocking it and used Calibre to convert it.  From memory, I think the 
original was in epub format for Kobo but I could be wrong.

Regards,        Barry.
