I prefer to strip the DRM so I can view them in Calibre, and read them on my e-reader – neither will allow me to view the encrypted PDF. I live in Canada and we cannot buy Nooks here, so I use Nook4PC apps to view books I’ve downloaded. I am completely stuck – I’m trying to remove DRM on a PagePerfect NookBook. What you probably meant to say was, “…except for the fact that I haven’t heard of anyone getting their CC account compromised by using what appears to be a popular plug-in.” ReplyĪSKING FOR HELP TO STRIP DRM ON B&N PDFs (PagePerfect NOOKBOOKS): But apparently there are neither of these assurances with this particular plug-in, so who knows what it’s doing with your CC number or any other personal info on your machine.īesides, let’s be honest here – you actually have no idea if those “thousands of other users” had their CC numbers stuffed away in a Russian database of stolen credit cards somewhere.

That would be another indication that the software was somewhat legitimate. If the source is available and you can audit and build it yourself, that would go a long way toward putting a mind at ease, or if the software was produced by a company that could be sued if they were caught selling valid CC accounts on the black market.
I would just be wary that you’re using a piece of software that is probably illegal (not illegal to use – illegal to produce and distribute according to DMCA), and you don’t know who wrote it (or possibly modified the version you’re about to use somewhere along the way), and then you’re blindly handing it your credit card info.Īs a software engineer, that’s just a bit too spooky for me.

While it’s being installed, go to the Apprentice Alf website and download this ZIP file full of plugins Set up NookStudy, and make sure you download the ebooks you bought. B&N no longer supports NookStudy, but it still works and you can use it to download your Nook ebooks (You can also use Nook for PC). I’ve mentioned it once or twice, and that’s what you’re going to use to remove the DRM.Īnd NookStudy is one of the PC apps that B&N released to read Nook ebooks.

If you have either of them then you do not need to install them again:Ĭalibre is of course the ebook library management tool. You need to download and install these apps on your computer. They were also written without the permission or participation of Kovid Goyal, the creator of calibre.
It’s easier than ever before to strip the DRM from your legally purchased ebooks, but it does still take some work to rescue your purchases.

What with B&N giving up on the international Nook Store and having trouble getting their new site to function properly, I’ve decided to dust off this two-year-old post and update the instructions so that they are applicable to users who find the post in July 2015.
