Thank you for your input. I used Word and LO in the past, but gave up using word processors entirely. I put text directly into calibre's tag editor then add tags and classes. I use quite a bit of visual complexity with boxed images with side, top, and bottom captions. To be sure, I have been aware that this is considered garish and tasteless, not to mention 'busy.' To do these things I am using a lot of Flex. For some reason Amazon does not recognize the much more efficient Grid, Columns, etc. I switched to CSS entirely because the desired correct-looking output with a word processor always will alter itself during its rule-based conversion to PDF. Using CSS I can control all aspects of placement such that there is no drift. If and when Container Queries ever become implemented I suspect there will be a more visually rich landscape for ebooks and ereaders. So far, I have not seen any dedicated ereader as good as calibre itself. Best regards, Pop
