Hi everyone,

I've been banging my head on the walls for a while no trying to get calibre to set the Begin mark properly in the Mobi file when converting an ePub.

Based on what I've in the forums and elsewhere, I tried the following so far:

In the content.opf file

Code:

<guide>
    <reference href="Text/one.html" title="Start" type="text" />
</guide>

Code:

<guide>
    <reference href="Text/one.html" title="Start Here" type="text" />
</guide>

Code:

<guide>
    <reference href="Text/one.html" title="Start Here" type="Start" />
</guide>

Code:

<guide>
    <reference href="Text/one.html" title="Start Here" type="start" />
</guide>

I also tried putting a <a id="Start" /> in the one.html file. Nothing has worked so far.

I'm using caliber 0.8.18 on a Windows XP Pro PC.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

TIA
