I am currently in PDF form and had been using 5.5" x 7" (8.5" x 11" w/1.5" mar L&R and 2" mar T&B. This does not look so good.

Been using latest: Open Writer > PDF Tools 4 > PDF Viewer.
These are children's books my father wrote. We immagine some will read on a ebook reader hand held and many or most will print.

Please help. I have been creating the website, setting up pay options, formatting documents, editing art work, fighting with .css, etc. and I am burned out! This is for my 84 year old father.

Peace and Blessings

Hi Rylos,
Did you fix your formatting issues? I hope so and would love to see your finished product!

I am currently facing a similar problem where I have a kids picture book ready to go - all text can be embedded in the pictures - but regardless of that what is the best dimension to produce each picture/page in so that it fits well on the majority of devices?

Any help greatly appreciated!!

Thanks

Dennis
