I have two test html formatted books (Just html and jpg, css is in the html, more of that later), both convert fine with Calibre (But it changes the naming which I have to then move to my ebook directory structure and then rename the file, which for 2500+ ebooks (many short stories in a series and many older novels) sucks). With AVS Document Converter I convert the two, with the exact same settings, and one converts fine and the other gets a fixed font size.
Why I prefer AVSDC is I can do a whole directory at one time and it just places the converted epubs (or other types if I want, say PDFs, txt, rtf, etc) into an output directory, which I can then move over to my ebook structure, no renaming fuss or muss.
I thought MAYBE it had to do with the imbedded css but they are pretty much the same
The one that converts fine
Code:
<html>
<head>
<meta version="3.0">
<title>Notes from the Moon</title>
<style type="text/css">
<!--
p { text-indent: 2em; margin: 0.6em }
h1, h2, h3, h4 { text-align: center }
h3 { page-break-before: always; font-size: 150% }
.toc { text-indent: 4em; margin: 0 }
.verse { text-indent: 2.6em; margin: 0 }
.no_ind { text-indent: 2.5em; text-align: left }
.quoted { text-indent: 4em; margin-left: 40px; margin-right: 40px }
.definition { text-indent: 0; margin-left: 40px; margin-right: 40px }
-->
</style>
</head>
<body bgcolor="#FFFFF0">
Code that gets a fixed font when converted
Code:
<html>
<head>
<!--

Typos and OCR errors fixed, as well as actually including the cover in the html file.

I just noticed that the one that is broken doesn't have a Cover <img> tag in it where as the working one starts with one, maybe That is causing the issue? If so it still seems to me that the PE reader would be able to do what the other ereaders do, and I would hate to have to go through the hundreds and hundreds of ebooks I already converted and reconvert, edit, etc, then try to use calibre etc etc.
Oh, and a side note, the Kobo is a friends who I called @ 3am the morning to have him try
Thanks Everyone
And so far I am having a blast with the PE. The eInk side is great for reading on (when I have working epubs), though I have not tried pdfs or editing pdfs yet, have to try that for my step-son for when he starts college
