Thanks. Yes, I agree with all that. Looks like PDF is going to be the best answer in this situation. The client is intersted in sending direct to the reviewers Kindle/app to take advantage of the security offered.
However, with the 50mb limit on Kindle email it'll need to be degraded somewhat.

I didn't get into the whole format decision thing as that was a long conversation with the client and you're right about the options. They didn't like the fact that reflow would move things about and text would be orphaned from images and all kinds of other reasons, so comic format it was. With the obvious caveat that it would be Kindle exclusive.

I dont get a lot of call for comic style projects, I do reflow all day every day, even fancy schmancy hand-coded jobs, so was hoping there might be some Kindle magic for sharing the comic format. Shame.
