Wait. Where did you get this conclusion, please? Because you think that everything is either KFX or KF7, is that right? So...you think that the KF8 "version" of the MOBI that Tex, JHowell and I are contemplating as existing, won't exist, is that right?

BUT...if we make the images the recommended size, KF8 coding or not, won't they simply slide into the KFX file?

What am I missing here?

That also means that your smaller images for mobi7 will be in absolute pixels might be OK. But this is really all dependent on how you store your images in the epub. Do your store your smaller images for KF7 in the epub or do you store your larger images at the HD sizing for KFX? If you store them as for the smaller KF7 sizings the display on the KFX device will be degraded because the images will be too small -- not to the HDV spec.
No offense, but I think that this is where the trolley is leaving the tracks. You have multiple images for each, yes? The HD and the KF7 version. You can opt to hide the KF7 for the ePUB, no? Or am I losing my mind?

Quote:
And if you store your images in your epub at the larger HD sizings then KFX displays will be OK but the displays on KF7 devices and KF8 devices(which also use mobi7 image format) will probably be much larger than screen width so they will just default to max screen width by default on both KF8 and mobi7 devices.
Okay--are we talking ePUBs? Actual ePUBs? Or are we talking about Kindle files? Can we specify so that I can be sure that when you say ePUB, you mean an ePUB on an ePUB device? Or "ePUB-source" when you mean the souce material for a mobi? When you say ePUB, I think that you mean a file being read on iBooks or B&N, so...I think I'm reading something different than what you mean when you type it.

Thanks.
