Hi:
I created an xhtml version of my novel. I have 27 chapters, afterword.html, preface.html, dedication.html and pubinfo.html. I use 3 small graphics in the book and have a separate stylesheet. All are at the same level.
Per Calibri instructions I created a toc.html with all the chapters/pages linked in the order I want them to appear in the final TOC: preface.html, chapter01.html, chapter02.html etc., afterword.html, dedication.html and pubinfo.html.
I was able to successfully convert to an epub, although I had to use the Editor in Calibri to import 2 of my 3 graphics -- only one imported when I did the "add book". I also had to manually fix the TOC -- it was alphabetical with the afterword first. I did an error check -- fixed one style in the stylesheet and the final epub looks great!
Next I need to do a mobi version. Same import problem from the xhtml source: 2 missing graphics and alphabetical TOC. Also, I set the page color to be a cream, rather than white, which worked in epub but not mobi. But Calibri says I can't use the editor to troubleshoot mobi problems. Since I fixed those problems with the graphics and TOC in the epub version, should I convert to mobi from THAT? Rather than starting over with the xhtml? Or is there another way to troubleshoot the mobi? The whole point of starting from html was to have a clean file with no garbage code leftover from word processing, etc.
Thanks for any assistance!
