I use drawings and simple text, in other words, in both books.

I've read the manual, but can't seem to find instructions for centering images. I go to edit book, I see the 'codes' I see the line with the 'image' in it but I'm clueless as to what to do next. I plead humble ignorance. Respectfully.

My cover drawing is 74kb. The rest of them, are less than 60kb. I do not know if this is too large or too small. I can easily, and happily, resize them upon finding out the correct dimensions.

Thank you for the assistance! Kind regards...

If you want to center an image, just enclose the <img> tag between <p> tags and style the <p> with "text-align: center;".

An example:

Suppose your image is named "MyImage1.jpg". Then, what you must do is the following:

1. In your .xhtml file, write:

<p class="center"><img alt="" src="../Images/MyImage1.jpg"/></p>

2. And in your .css stylesheet, write:

.center {
   text-align: center;
   text-indent: 0;
}

Don't forget to link the css stylesheet with your .xhtml file. That's all. The same is for centering text:

<p class="center">Your text here or whatever</p>
