Thanks, no problem. It's a relatively minor issue.

But I was just wondering. In my reader program, Mantano, bold, italics and centering are all maintained on the book details page. Do they use a different process to get that information? For example, do they read book details directly from the book itself whereas CC gets it from Calibre's database or content server?
