For the specific issue he has, there is no need to resort to the
work-around he uses.  The Baen Free Library offers Zipped HTML
versions, which convert directly to Plucker with no problems.  (I
think I encountered *one* Free Library title Plucker had an issue
with.  Everything else converted in a few minutes a book.

I really don't understand why he is going through extra trouble.
