All it takes is a thorough editorial proof read of each format before release. Many publishers were caught so on-the-hop by the sudden popularity of ebooks that they hadn't geared up to cope. Some smaller houses ran to the badly flawed Smashwords 'metgrinder' auto-formatting. That's a weak excuse and not a good reason. Badly presented books should NOT be on sale. My own wee house has been geared to ebooks as well as paperbacks for a decade. You'll find no such glaring errors in our stuff. but we're little ... so who cares? Neil
