PRS-T1 Long paragraphs cause unwanted page breaks on PRS-T1

entodoays · 03-10-2014, 11:11 AM

I have created an epub in which each chapter is one long paragraph.

Now, the PRS-T1 spilts this paragraph in two or three parts without there being anything indicating why the breaks are being done at that point instead of another point. This creates half empty pages on the reader.

Breaking the long <div></div> element in two changes this behaviour. The text is split at the porposely inserted break.

Trying to set the css style to display:inline brings the problem back.

Does anyone have this problem? Is there a way to go around this issue?

It's a well-known issue with ADE. There's nothing you can do about it (except, of course, to break the text into shorter paragraphs).

Do you REALLY need each chapter to be one long paragraph? It must make the book very difficult to read.

Thanks for your answer. It is difficult to explain, but it's good to know of the problem. I will try to work around the issue the best I can.
