I noticed that when I look at the above ebook file that I made:
http://files.videohelp.com/u/61125/Buer.mobi
-when viewed on a Kindle Touch, the Kindle Touch honors the double space I put
in some places (like right after the book cover picture, so that the book cover picture remains separate from any text), but when viewed on an Android device with the app called Cool Reader, that app doesn't honor the double spaces. Also the Kindle Touch automatically put a double space between paragraphs, while the Android device indents the paragraphs. The double space between paragraphs (and other places) makes the ebook easier on the eyes. Can someone take a look at the above mobi file on an ebook reader (Kindle or other kind) and give comments/suggestions on appearance (formatting)? Also, is there a software that can be used on a PC to simulate a Kindle? In other words, the appearance will be exactly the same as a Kindle. The purpose here is not to read the book on a PC, but to know exactly how the book will appear on a Kindle. Another question: Is there an official protocol to insert captions when viewed on a Kindle? This protocol would not allow captions to get separated from the picture if the user chooses a large font. And what software would do this? (Though I could, I don't really want to put the captions IN the bottom of the picture - like with photo editor Irfanview.) Lastly, this book has some misspellings and other mistakes. My purpose is not to correct these problems - that will be left to the author to do. In some way of thinking, I think the mistakes add to the overall effect of the book.
