Both formats, briefly
LITIN
LIT was Microsoft's ebook format, built on its Compressed HTML Help technology and read through the Microsoft Reader app. Files reflow their text and can carry bookmarks, annotations and DRM. Microsoft retired Reader in 2012, so almost nothing shipping today will open a .lit file, and the format survives mostly in collections assembled in the 2000s. Send one through the converter to get a copy that your phone, tablet or e-reader can actually display.
PDBOUT
PDB started life as the file container for Palm OS handhelds and became one of the first practical ways to carry novels in a pocket. The name covers several book layouts packed inside that container, PalmDOC and eReader among them, each holding the text, light formatting and bookmarks. Palm devices disappeared long ago, so a .pdb book usually surfaces from an old backup or memory card. Run it through the converter to get EPUB, AZW3 or PDF that a current reader will open.
