The HTML files are suitable for conversion by the online content server and/or the eBookwise/GEB Librarian, and there are several paths from LIT to IMP.

Bottom.Line: If you have some programming expertise you can churn out EB-1150 eBooks with whatever tweaks you desire (fonts, margins, justification, ...).

Tom:

Have you been able to use any other method in SBPubX.doc like 'BuildFromHtmlFile', 'BuildFromTextFile', 'BuildFromWordDoc' or 'BuildFromOEBFF' and make it work?

There are no coding examples for these and I don't get any results using them like I do when I use the 'Build' method.

Do you have any perl scripts that could help manipulate .IMP files?

I am thinking about doing a 'imp2imp' that would work like 'mobi2mobi' wherein a DRM-free file's metadata (Author, Title, Category) could be 'edited' and re-saved.

Presently, I use GEBLibrarian for this, and while it works, I prefer a perl script to do this.
