Whats defintly false. For decorative images the alt attribute must be present, too, but it can be empty and should be empty. Not showing the deorative images does have an effect of the understaning of the text, so the alt attribute must e empty.
If the image represents a graphical letter, so alt-attribute should be set to the letter be represented:
Code:
<h1><img src='../Images/bigC.jpg' alt = 'C' />hapter 1</h1>
So he defintly has no understandig about the role of the alt attribut . |
I didn't read the whole thing, although it is much- and oft-touted on the KDP, but a) ditto on the Calibre bit, and b) when I saw, given the date of the original writing, the "display:none" written as though it would subsequently work in e-ink--which prior to 2.4 it certainly did not--I blew it off. That, and I'll avoid pointing out, from an author, this sentence: "Feel free to right-click the image and save it for your own perusal." A native English speaker and author, (not to mention, per his blog, "accomplished musician" and publisher) however, shouldn't confuse "perusal" and "for your own use."
Yes, that last bit was snarky, but really? "...get our book into Calibre to build a real ebook?"
Zounds.
