New Epub/Mobipocket creation tool: Jutoh
Hello,
Jutoh is an inexpensive WYSIWYG ebook editor for Windows, Mac OS X, Linux, FreeBSD and Solaris x86. You can try it out here: http://www.jutoh.com Jutoh imports from Epub, OpenDocument, HTML and text files, and can create books in Epub, Mobipocket, text, OpenDocument and MP3 formats. Jutoh has a cover designer with a selection of templates for creating your cover image with minimal effort, and has several features for tailoring your books for different publishers and sites without the need to maintain different versions. It can also store notes, pictures and URLs in project files without affecting the generated book. It's suitable for fiction and other books that don't have very complex layout requirements. I hope it's of interest! Best regards, Julian Smart Anthemion Software |

Most likely this is an operator error on my part, but I can't seem to get images into my ebooks when using jutoh. Which is a bummer, as I am really liking the demo.
I insert them into my document, but when I go to compile, no joy. I have tried png and jpeg, in both color and grayscale. |

Sorry about that, in 1.01 images were added inline in the HTML, which Mobipocket doesn't like and probably wouldn't be compatible with some readers. I corrected that in 1.02, and I'm also going to release 1.03 today with a couple of other bugs fixed. Best regards, Julian |

html " problem
Hi,
I found that importing an html file did not convert " to quotes after the first instance in each paragraph. e.g. "Thank you." came out as "Thank you." instead of "Thank you." and so on... I am using version 1.03. |

Hi Julian,
Jutoh is growing on me. Enough so that I went ahead and bought it while it's at the introductory price. Image problems (version 1.05): they fail to load with ODT files. Perhaps it's just PNGs. I can't recall now if I tried with the JPG conversions. Inserted images are not given the alt="" attribute, causing EpubCheck to fail. A quick fix to "Import images..." to include that part would be very welcome. Just the empty alt="" would be fine. Thanks. P.S. I'm running Windows 7 64bit in case that matters.

Hmm - looks nice - just wish I'd keep a closer eye on the forum as I missed the intro pricing!
Not sure if it's a user error or not, but I tried to remove the paragraph spacing by (from memory) editing Project Properties/Styles, then selecting "Custom CSS" for the basic style (the indent one) then setting the spacing to .00 from the default .80 value, but it didn't seem to make it into the ePub... Didn't have time to double-check though. |

Which reminds me of another thing: a paragraph with a top or bottom margin in the style displays with extra space both before and after the paragraph. Makes it hard to see at a glance what kind of style it is. I'm often clicking in the space before or after to see if it's an empty <p> that I can delete. (Hope that all makes sense.) I haven't had a chance to check out the latest release (1.07) so I don't know if these things still happen. |
