I am beginning a book using images and text from an existing Web site.

Given the predominance of wide displays that most use today, I have made the majority of my images on the site 600-700 pixels wide to get the clarity and size of the macro-images that I take. They work fine in the larger display, but probably not in the Kindle or other readers.

Can someone give me some guidance on these points:

If image size is a factor, what size should I shoot for?

For text, how many characters across, should I use?

What about font size? Any tips on a standard here?

Thanks!
