Conversion Problems
haha, I have my cover problem fixed but the converted file didn't format well..
The first issue that I have is that the cover is in my book twice. I added a cover in Calibre but already had a cover added in the code. That'll be easy to fix..I would assume that I'd just remove the image from my HTML code? There are other issues though... It seems to be placing page numbers on chapters 2 and 3... Also an extra page after my cover that I have in code, which would be the second cover. I'm guessing that's a code issue? The code follows. Code:
<html> <head> <title> Title Of Book. </title> <style type="text/css"> body {font-family: Arial; letter-spacing: 0; line-height: 1.3em; font-size: 1em; text-decoration:none;} img {display: block; margin: 5px auto; text-align:center;} hr {page-break-after:always;} h1 {line-height:1.6em;} .large {font-size:200%; font-weight:bold;} .medium {font-size:130%;} .center {text-align:center;} p { text-indent : 20px; } </style> </head> <body> <br><br> <img src="Tut3/coverbitebook2.jpg" width="624" height="824" alt="" border="0"> <hr> <a name="Introduction"></a> <h1>Introduction</h1> <p>This is where you would add all the text for your introduction. You can add anything you like. Anytime you want to start a new paragraph just add another paragraph element. You can do that by making the tags that you see this paragraph in.</p> <hr> <h1>Table Of Contents</h1> <li><a href="#Introduction">Introduction</a></li><br /> <li><a href="#Chapter1">Chapter 1</a><br /> <li><a href="#Chapter2">Chapter 2</a><br /> <li><a href="#Chapter3">Chapter 3</a><br /> <li><a href="#TheEnd">The End</a><br /> <hr> <a name="Chapter1"></a> <h1>Chapter 1</h1> <p>There's is where you'd put the first paragraph of you first chapter</p> <p>This is an example of how to start a second paragraph. See how there are two paragraph elements? I mentioned them in the introduction.</p> <hr> <a name="Chapter2"></a> <h1>Chapter 2</h1> <p>This is where you'd put the first paragraph of chapter 2</p> <hr> <a name="Chapter3"></a> <h1>Chapter 3</h1> <p>This is where you'd add the first paragraph of chapter 3</p> <hr> <a name="TheEnd"></a> <br><p class='large center'>THE END</p> </body> </html> |

What format are you converting too and what are you reading it in where you're seeing problems.

To save some time why not read How to ask a question about conversion problems and possibly Read this before Posting PDF Questions.

converting to MOBI from a MOBI. I basically use Calibre to add a cover, and that's it. I just noticed that I'm getting page numbers, I figured there was a check box that would remove them...
I read the files in Kindle for PC. |

Calibre does not add page numbers to a book; if you're seeing page numbers they are there in the original file. Where did the original come from?

I think calibre can generate an apnx(?) file that will cause Kindle devices/apps to display calculated page numbers. I also think you can tell calibre not to generate/send them to the device/app. Either way... the page numbers are not in the newly converted mobi.
