Having a quick go with Mobipocket Converter seems to work partially. Two changes should make it work completely.

(1) Do the board as a 9x9 table, with graphics for the column and row labels as well as for the squares. The board itself converted OK, but the conversion didn't cope with the two tables that are supposed to overlap.

(2) Don't generate into folders, but have a very flat one-folder output, containing both the html and the graphics. It may not be necessary, but it will certainly mean there's less chance of links going wrong.


I wouldn't bother with your index, but add a heading to each puzzle, and then generate a table of contents from that.

Make sure you specify a page break before each of the solution pages, so that there's no chance of seeing another solution when looking at a different one.

It looks like it shouldn't be too hard to make a really nice little Mobipocket ebook. Although to work optimally on both PDA sized screens and larger eInk screens as mobipocket, you might need to investigate having two different sized sets of images for the boards.

I attach the file. It is a zip file, you only have to start in index.html

Does anybody be so kind in trying to find a method to convert them into a eBook?

Thanks in advance,
Best regards,
