Talking So, I'm creating my first eBook - It's only 1,100 pages...

Quite honestly, I've gotten a great deal of mileage from MobileRead and I've never posted. My project is a version of the Holy Scriptures edited from a mid-1500's, Spanish manuscript.

I'm volunteering for the non-profit publisher that previously had this Bible ePublished on Amazon and various other platforms, until it was recently recalled from the sub-contracted, for profit, publisher.

The intention is to now re-publish and distribute the Spanish and English versions, free-of-cost. The InDesign files were obtained for the print layout, but no ePublished files were obtained, and that's where I come in.

I've done an InDesign EPUB export that actually came out in a very workable fashion, and I've now have some really clean html5 and a reworked CSS stripped of InDesign's signature mess.

Considering I've never done more than use Calibre on a few occasions to convert some PDFs to mobi, I'm feeling pretty good about this project. I have a working, 3-level, internal TOC with crosslinking of all books and chapters, and it even passes the EPUB validator at http://validator.idpf.org/.

What I'm here for at this time is to figure out if it's possible to exclude the Dictionary and Concordance from being searched by any given eReader's search engine. I would like to think there is a way to use a <div> to flag sections to NOT be searched.

Any advice or feedback would be welcomed.
