LRF output - Page 6

Excellent thanks that works.

Is there any way to edit the meta information of files on the reader or do I have to do that on the PC and then transfer them back to the reader?

kovidgoyal · 05-14-2007, 01:19 PM

Nope no metadata editing on the reader.

kovidgoyal · 05-14-2007, 03:40 PM

0.3.30 with bug fixes and automatic import of metadata from opf files.

Hey, just discovered this tool and it works GREAT for 3 really nasty Toc-style html files.

A bug report, and feature suggestion:

The ’ character in the text I have is not formatted right, it comes up as a blank every time in the .lrf file.

Second, a line-cropping option would be great. So I could specify -crop 2 2 to crop 2 lines off the top and bottom of each .html page. The files I have contain lines at the top with website stuff there that I would like stripped out.

When you say crop lines off the top do you mean before the opening html tag i.e. the very first lines of each file?

Open a bug report and attach a sample file with the suspect character and I'll fix it.

Reported.

And you could do it either way, really. Basically, every file in the batch has a line at the top and bottom with links "Previous | Table of Contents | Next" which direct to the appropriate pages. In the lrf conversion, these get stuck all over the place and it's basically unreadable.

Ticket opened. The forum seemed to eat my other reply.

I uploaded one of the chapters so you can see the formatting.

Hello kovidgoyal,

first I'd like to say thanks a lot for libprs500. It's very good to have such a tool (mainly if you use just linux).

But to my point, I would like to ask whether html2lrf is able to embed fonts into lrf. This is quite important for me as I am using non-english fonts. So far I have solved it via pdf, however lrf could be better as it's Reader's native format.

No it i'm afraid it doesn't have support for embedded fonts. I might add support in the future, but that s not a priority for me. I would suggest you open a ticket and I'll get around to it when I have the time.

Very Cool!

I've already entered a new ticket with suggestions for more metadata that should be easy to import (at least from Baen-style opf files).

libprs500 is really spiffy, and is fast becoming the best of the open-source tools for talking to the reader and converting files for it!

I just sent a ticket for embedded fonts. I really want this.

Does html2lfr support tables and inline graphics (graphics with text on either side)?
