We have produced some epubs for our customers. Some of them contain short stories with a picture and a text of/about the author at the end.
The picture is at the left and right of it there is the text about the author.
We have put the picture and the text in a table, so that the text does not flow around the picture if you use a bigger font.
This works fine in ADE and on Sony-Readers, but on an iPad (in iBooks) the pictures in tables are not visible.
We tried older epubs with pictures in tables and we had only white space instead of pictures
Of course we can use something like blocks for that simple layout, but we have a lot of older epubs out there, where we can not change the layout.
Does someone has the same problem? Is there a solution? Or do we have to wait until Apple is conform with the standard?
Thanks
