Okay! I've attached here what I've accomplished (so far) today.
Two questions...
I wanted to increase the page margins just a LITTLE bit, now that I've added a background image, and found out how to do that via a page in these forums, but it doesn't seem to be working (I've tried all kinds of different things) -- what am I doing wrong???
Also, re the background image, is there a way to get it to stretch (or shrink) to fill the entire viewing area but without wrapping? I'm not sure if I'm explaining that well, but I was thinking that it would be cool if I could do a background of that "old paper", but have it fade to white at the edges around all four sides -- but at the same time resize if one is in landscape or portrait mode (or in another ebook software).
Does that make sense? Or is trying to do what I'm trying to do with a background too buggy -- and should I just scrap it?
I guess I'm getting off-topic for what was my initial question here (re font embedding), but I thought I'd ask you folks here since you've been so wonderfully helpful for me today.
