Page breaks in Mobi files
When I create Mobi books, I always force a pagebreak by adding the Mobi-specific: "<mbp:pagebreak> tag to the file.
I notice, however, that when I convert LIT books to Mobi, they come out with hard page breaks at the start of chapters without doing this. What other methods are there of forcing a pagebreak in a Mobi book? Anyone know? |

That would explain it. Thanks, Paul!

Page Break
Hi all - I`m new to this so where exactly in the HTML code would this little piece of script be entered as I am having trouble separating pages of a book which I have scanned from OCR to HTML.
When viewed in Sigil it is fine but when converted to Mobi for my Kindle I don`t get the separate pages and so this means it is really really messy. For example : At the end of Chapter 1 instead of creating a new page for Chapter 2 it continues at the end of Chapter 1 on the same page ! Where am I going wrong ? Would creating a TOC file in Sigil work do you think or would I still not get the separate pages. Sorry for being new and being a pain in the rear ! Thanks all Anthony |

The easiest way to do it is to add to your HTML:
Code:
<mbp:pagebreak> |
