But that's done by a trade publisher and y'know...sometimes, you just can't tell people what they don't want to hear. They wanted it live; they'd screwed the pooch on it and they were in a rush. If naught else, FXL using the Amazon DIY software is fast and easy.

Thanks.

FWIW, it is downloadable for USB transfer, the delivered file extension is azw3, the font size is changeable, and it is reflowable. The file size is only 15MB.

I don't know if K4x, tablets, etc get stuck with fixed layout.
