Code:
mobi2mobi infile.prc --outfile fixedfile.mobi --fiximagesizes
can maybe fix the problem. There was a bug in mobi2mobi so it did not work on Linux in certain cases. I had to add a sleep(1) in mobi2mobi before the call that read the file. |
Remember, the jpeg file can't be larger than 64K. So an 800 x 600 jpeg *could* with 12-bit color depth, be large enough, especially if there's a bunch of crappy EXIF info embedded, to exceed that. Could be that the jpeg was created at High or Maximum quality. If you extract it and re-compress with Medium quality - using Photoshop or PSP - that should make the file small enough.
