My bad, Slow. I deleted that file, so unfortunately I couldn't pass it along, but I was doing all kinds of things to it last night, so who knows what happened? I do know that the backmatter images were not centered because I choice the option of getting rid of the <div> tags. Which makes sense. I don't know what I did to make the p tags lose their indent.

I probably did something weird. I was removing HTML tags and stuff to test it. Stuff I won't need to do, because Sigil is going to tell me.

Next up in my experimenting is to open an .html in Sigil and then run your plug-in.

The backmatter images (of my previous ebook covers) in my current ebooks are my main concern now. I noticed that your cleaner assigns a proportionately higher percentage to larger images. I'm thinking that's so the really small images don't get too badly stretched on really big screens. Would that be right?

What seemed best to me was to use a really big image (1800pxX2700px). Reduce the size pretty drastically in GIMP (the % size, that is) so the file isn't too big, and then manually reset your plugin % to 33%.

The images will be reduced (I did do some testing viewing on Calibre's ebook Viewer) on the smaller device screens (phones and ereaders), and they won't be stretched on the really big screens (big tablets and what have you). And in both instances, they'll take up a third of the screen.

Does this make sense, or is there a better way to go?

PS. I have v0.3.6
