Well - I tried quite a few different feeds at first.
But just for testing purposes I've been trying the BBC World News Feed

http://newsrss.bbc.co.uk//rss/newson...t_page/rss.xml

I got this feed directly from Mobireader reather than the BBC website.

If I create a newspaper in feedbooks and add this in as a feed (and then publish it), It only creates a small ebook with just the headers and a few lines of text.

The same feed when viewed in Mobireader also displays the same headers and lines of text, however when it creates the ebook (and transfers it to my cybook), It scrapes the full articles.

I'm wondering if it's just a setting on the Feedbooks website - except that I can't seem to find it!...

Thanks

*Edit*
Just a thought - I am using Newsstand to sync with - maybe stanza scrapes the extra info. I will Download it and try it later.
