Chapters showing unwanted pagebreaks and < h1 > text

raltman · 10-05-2009, 02:31 PM

Hello. I love Calibre - it is an amazing tool!

I'm using it to convert an HTML file full of jpg images to an ePub with chapters. I don't want theheader tags that define the chapters to have pages or even be seen while I'm reading the pages in the viewer, but I would like them to be labeled and indented appropriately in the TOC.

So with the html, below, I come very close. I use the TOC screen "Level 1 TOC XPath expression" = "//h:h1" and corresponding level 2 to h2. I force an auto-gerenation of the TOC. Lastly, for the "Insert breaks before (XPath expression)" = "/". With these settings, I get a TOC which indexes correctly, but I'm not able to strip out the chapter headers or remove the pagebreaks after I generate the ePub.

Any suggestions?

Thanks!
