I have worked diligently to resolve this issue myself. I have done lots of searching on this site and have made many improvements in the recipe I am trying to write. I have learned to rotate images and remove every tag except one to obtain ONLY the image file and nothing more. The tag I can not seem to remove is the name of the author.
For Arcamax comics, the original HTML code for the strip is:
<a href="
/thefunnies/andycapp/bio" class="author bio" rel="/thefunnies/andycapp/bio?ajax"
title="Reginald Smythe">Reginald Smythe</a>
For GoComics, the original HTML code is:
<h1 ><a href="
/kitandcarlyle/2011/06/01">Kit 'N' Carlyle</a>
<span> by Larry Wright</span></h1>
The tag or information I want to remove is highlighted in "red".
I have tried in every way I know to remove the tag.
Here is the reason it matters: I am getting older and my eye-sight is not what it use to be. That is the primary reason for getting an E-reader in the first place; so I can enlarge the text and be able to read with more comfort. But Comics are coming out too small on my Kindle 3 to read!!!!
My thought is if I remove as much information as possible, I have more screen area to see the comic. I have added extra CSS code to enlarge the image, within the limits of the Kindle 3 so it does not default to "fit to screen" but the author's name is interfering with getting the most out of that.
I have tried "debugging" the process from input to processed but can find nothing I am able to change there. I have tried "Inspect" in the Calibre Viewer and it shows the link as a "span" with a "class" equal to "underline". I might also note that the author's name in the conversion process is VERY different: In Arcamax, the author's name is in small type inline with the image. In GoComics, the author's name is very large and appears atop the comic.
I will most appreciative for all and any help with this. I may be getting old, but there is still enough kid left in me to want to read my funnies every day.
Thank you,
