Hi, gang:

I've read the Apple recommendations with regard to the "size," in terms of MB, per chapter, for images (11MB per chapter), but does anyone--anyone at ALL--have any idea what the height and width of the ideal size for the iPad would be? (Yes, Ducky, I know you don't).

I have a children's book inhouse. It's all jpegs, pure and simple. I would really like to make it perfect for the iPad, and Kobo secondly. I'm not enough of a CSS whiz to be comfy with the whole 100% thing (unless some kind soul wants to explain this to me--it didn't seem to work when I tried it previously).

The dimension is 1024x768 @132ppi--does that sound right? If 132 is the natural resolution, should I use that to create the images? {head hurting}

Help?

Many thanks,

Hitch
