Heh. Gotta love a new SF zine where I know two people listed on the cover. I could wish for publication is a format other than PDF...

EDIT: Where I know one of the people. There are two people writing SF as James Hartley, and the one in Concept SF is the one I don't know...

Incidentally, both I and someone from the British SF Association pinged the editor. As a result, Concept SF will now be offered in Mobipocket format as well as PDF.

I also pointed the editor at Calibre to produce Sony versions, and recommended he stop by MobileRead for information.

They do have it in Mobipocket format as well as PDF.

Forgot to check this and issue #2 is already out with issue #3 coming out in a few days

JSWolf · 10-04-2008, 09:28 AM

I just had a look at the Mobipocket edition for issue #2. It's rather a poorly made edition. The table of contents exist, but do not have any actually links. The only goto link is first page which is incorrect as it brings us back to the cover page. Basically, whoever made this doesn't know about the format and how to do a proper version.

Gibbo · 12-04-2008, 02:36 PM

Issue #3 is out.

Pdf
Mobi

Enjoy

JSWolf · 12-10-2008, 08:22 AM

Issue #3 in Mobipocket format is a mess. Two covers, no proper ToC, we get a mix of -- and em dash. If you've ever seen NCIS, then a good head slap is in order.

Absolutely. Should have asked the experts!

. Even the in-magazine index has no working links. Such a wasted occasion.
