Hi all

I am creating some test mobi files for an upcoming Indesign job we will be doing and I wanted to use the 'Export to Kindle' plug-in. I created three test documents (very simple - 3 heading levels and 3 body copy styles), using approximately the styles the proper job will use, and put them into a book. The documents have endnotes which were converted from footnotes using cross references.

The problem is when I create a mobi file if I click on an endnote marker in the text it takes me to the endnote but the endnotes don't have any numbering. If I scroll a page left or right and then back again when I get back to the first endnote I looked at, it now has its number. If I use the TOC to go back to my first page and click on the same endnote marker I get the same problem again in the endnotes. Anyone seen this before?

I'm previewing in Kindle Previewer. If I convert the file to an ePUB the endnotes work as expected every time (in ADE).

I've got some experience with ePUBs from Indesign but this is the first time I've really looked at Indesign>Kindle. What's the expert view - better to use the plug-in to export direct to mobi or better to output ePUB and then convert to mobi from that?

thanks,
Iain
