It can't be purely random or we wouldn't see so many instances via web searches. The cs being in lowercase reinforces that it is a prefix and the remainder of the class is the variant (like the calibrenn classes produced by Calibre)
Yes. That's sort of where I was going. Not the hex stuff, god knows. But generally.

Break the number down to hex pairs and we get :

CF = 207
6B = 107
BF = 191
71 = 113
Wowza. I didn't even think of that.

If the class was always applied to something with the same characteristics it might be a way of describing them, say the colour in RGBA format (this is a light shade of pink so not likely in an ebook). Is there anything in the css class definition that could be coded with four hex pairs ? If so the naming system used may be a reflection of what it is describing.

Well, Wolfie, Our Man In Havana, (what did I say? Did I call it?) managed to track down a sibling of my corrupted book. Inside, where it counts, this book is identical to what my client returned to me, in the essentials. What doesn't match is the text, solely. The rest:
  • The style classes; the use of pts for fonts; the application of black to the color of the font. The transparent background color.
  • the CSS sheet itself--the layout, etc.;
  • The way the p and span classes are deployed in sets.
  • the way the content is slammed into a single HTML file.
  • and NOTHING--nothing--in the OPF. Nothing that points me to a perpetrator, uh, sorry, bookmaker/bookmaking software.

Are all identical.Wolfie tells me that this link is free to use, so, the book he found is here: https://bibliotecapemobil.ro/content...-_Viforul.epub .

I haven't had a chance to delve further, Bob, since just reading your post, but I most certainly shall. Can't be before Wednesday; I'm slammed with some video conferences that I cannot alter, between now and Weds. a.m. Nonetheless, ladies and gents (any other ladies here, now that I think about it?), here's the sibling ePUB for your sleuthing delight. I'd love to play Holmes with this, but it's going to have to wait.
