Doh! Fifteen years + on the internet and I can't remember seeing that one before, even on the good old BBSs.
Ok, bit of a learning curve here, I am trying. Hopefully I will get to read the book eventually ...
Interesting to notice how some things - like the offending text we are talking about here - don't show up in the PDF before conversion and then suddenly appear in the MOBI afterwards ...
I just noticed also that neither the PDF before conversion, nor the MOBI afterwards have any italic print. I have the paper version of this book and, like all books it uses italics for emphasis, to indicate someone's train of thought, for foreign language and so on. This is quite important for a better understanding of the story, and would be nice to correct if possible too. But quite likely it was lost in creating the original PDF version?
Now, trying to get rid of the extra page breaks:
I tried using the expression <br>Generated by.*abclit.html<br> , but it does not highlight anything in the wizard. I also tried leaving off the <br> , first at the start, then at the end - no luck, it does not highlight anything. Here is a copy-and-paste of a section of the text from the wizard after using the expression Generated by.*abclit.html :
... Central Intelligence Agency. He <b>Generated by ABC Amber LIT Conv<a href="http://www.processtext.com/abclit.html">erter, http://www.processtext.com/abclit.html</a></b></p><p>
was also at this moment ...
and this is the part that gets highlighted by the wizard:
Generated by ABC Amber LIT Conv<a href="http://www.processtext.com/abclit.html">erter,
http://www.processtext.com/abclit.html
As I have said, I can live with the extra page breaks, and even the lack of italics, but if anyone still feels like playing, I am open for other suggestions. Thanks again.
