Hi
I've been dropping in and out the forums for about a year now, good stuff, lots of answers. Anyhoo, I now have a question I can't seem to find the answer too so I thought I'd ask.
The short version.
- Doc to Filtered Html (Done)
- Filtered Html to generic ePub in Sigil (Done)
- Sigil - Add very simple H12&3 & firstline indent CSS (Done)
- Sigil - Split the file down into chapters, title & verso etc (Done)
- Notepad++ - split the ePub and scrub the file. (Simple & Elegant)
- Re-zip, check on various Desktop apps (inc ADE) - Looking great.
- Still a generic ePub, Fire into Calibre (Top program, by the way) & run conversion to mobi.....(Hmmmm?)
The only setting I altered from default was put the TOC at the start, everything else to default...output Kindle from Default generic epub. I hurriedly plugged in my K3 and dumped the new mobi onto the device...TADA! superb, even the static title verso looked excellent (Kindlegen seems to hate those). It was only when I started testing the TOC and jumping randomly about in the text that I found my problem, and I can't figure out why.
Randomly, somethimes a whole para, some times just a sentence or two, or even just a word or two, I get what appears to be double spacing between words. This wouldn't be to much of an issue if these "patches" weren't sitting amoungst properly spaced text.
Anyway, any thoughts guys?
Before you ask, all text is enclosed in <P> </P> tags with only class style listed. It's as clean as I can make it. All Para breaks use <P> </P>, there are no scan font br, or well any other tags in the files (xhtml).
