Well, okay, so the idea is to offer the book through amazon, which in the netherlands goes through a distributor who only accepts epub. So far so good.
It's just that the foundation who wants these books made insists on viewing the proofs on a kindle device, which makes this a difficult proposition. They are quite design-minded, and don't like the fact that the screens look unequal due to the lack of hyphenation, the difficulty with keeping the custom font on screen, and the line-height, which personally I don't mind as I like whitespace.
I guess I'll tell them to get a kobo instead, or use desktop simulation software like the rest of us.
