This is in reference to a book that has been out since October and has sold thousands of copies with no complaints from readers. Now, it's true I used the -C2 flag, but since when is that a problem? The flag is there to be used, right?
Like many people here, I made the book (back in October) as an epub first, then went to mobi through kindlegen, then mobiunpack, then hand-tweaked the html and opf, then kindlegen again, then kindlestrip.
I'm almost thinking this is an excuse for them to get me to make a KF8 version of the book—the KF8-making kindlegen came out after this book was released. That is something I do want to do, but I'm busy with other things right now...
