Thing is, I could take most of the publisher eBooks and clean up the code so it's well formatted with clean and simple code. It would mean when you buy an eBook, it would be ready to read with no eed for changes (in most cases).
I've noticed that most publishers don't keep it simple and use weird class names, when it could all be so simple for them. And they use <span> way too often, and also complex lines to add line spaces, in addition to adding codes that do absolutely nothing.

I could do the same, as far as cleaning up the publishers' codes. I should be working for a publisher, but I really have no desire to do so, since I'm retired and do this editing for something to do when I'm not doing other things.
