Just curious!
At least 3-5 per chapter, more than 600 words or 3k characters. I'm working on a new title right now, and i noticed several long paragraphs in the first chapter (one has more than 800 words), so i'll probably use it as a test file later.

Working on public domain portuguese books, so i've got no choice.

There is a test file here which, among other things has some long paragraphs. I don't have a test with "widows: 0; orphans: 0", but that should be easy to add.

Ok, I was not clear. I just created it as an epub and renamed it as a kepub to see if it's going to work with the TR-1. In other words, this kepub is not coming from Kobo but from wikisource through me. Indeed, with the KT my "maldoror.kepub.epub" worked so well that I wanted to test it with the Sony. Of course, "she" was unable to take advantage to this "kobotisation"!
That explains it.

I put it on my Kobo Touch as an epub and a kepub. With the kepub renderer it looks very good. It looks good with the epub render except for all the extra paragraph breaks. I can't see a pattern for where the splits are occurring. And I am actually running beta firmware, so it doesn't look like it has been fixed for the next release.

By the way, I like the little bugs as separators. But, they look a little small on the Touch. The Glo has a higher resolution, so they would look smaller there. If it can be made a little bigger, it would be clearer what it was.

It seems that everyone here was as busy as I was!

David it was intended, because these bugs are like that in real life: in fact they are lice! And the illustration on the cover shows the same animal, "in all its splendor" . Anyway, I'll try just to see with a bigger size.

BTW, I made other tests with the .kepub format and, unfortunately, this not as good or comprehensive as I expected: by renaming the epub, some of the initial formatting no longer work.

Bom dia and thanks vampiregrave for your reply.

Would it be possible for you to post a sample of an epub not working correctly?

Playing with it, we might be able to find a solution.

Jellby, your reader_test_epub is usefull. In it, the long paragraph is as long as some in my own epub (around 2200 words).

JSWolf I'm sure you found it, but just have a look to "CHANT TROISIÈME", the first and last paragraph.

Im working on a new one right now; currently finishing the second chapter, and it should have some examples. I'll probably test it on my Glo first. After that i can post it here; it's in Portuguese but it doesn't really matter in this case.

Perfect!

My epub is in French a Portuguese one is nice.

Some long paragaphs and the CSS should suffice.

For my part, I consider the problem (long paragraphs) is solved, at least for now.

Hope to read you soon vampiregrave!

I noticed that page 70 (or 71) there is a paragraph issue. There is a wide empty space at the end of screen (using Reader Library for Windows). I do plan on trying it again with widows and orphans turned off.

Curious!

I just had a look on the epub with Sigil and I found no empty space. Please, could you also try with Sigil and give me specific references (no page number but perhaps pieces of text I can search for?)

Did you try with ADE? Maybe the empty space is a result of widows and orphans set to 0.

I believe I solved the problem. Remove the page breaks from the CSS. It seems to work after that. There are 4 of them to be removed.

Code:
page-break-before: avoid;
yes you can erase these codes.
It was for another test.

BTW with the KT and the Sony I didn't see negative or positive effects with them enabled.

PS. your new avatar is nicer than the old one

Yes I did, and actually there are not to be there.

But again, with the KT and the Sony all seem the same with or without.

I used ADE on Windows 7 to view this.
