Caveat: I didn't download the ePUBs and look at them.

From what I see in the section posted in your first post, unkauth, there is no reason on God's green earth for those to be fixed-layout and every reason for them NOT to be. Wanting an eBook to "look just like" your print version is not, actually, a "good" reason. That's an uninformed reason.

People will not enjoy--which means, they'll stop reading--those in FXL. You can bet your salary on it. Is that what she wants?

If she actually wants people to READ her books, then she needs reflowable. Period.
