Header Formatting in Latest Version & Section Question

Blaineoreski · 05-08-2022, 02:01 PM

Hi,

I'm not really computer savvy, so please forgive the basic level of this question.

I recently upgraded to the latest version of Calibre. Up to now, I've always used the following code to generate headers in each conversion to PDF:

<header style="justify-content: flex-end; color: gray; font-size: xx-small;padding-top: 20px;"><div class="odd-page"><i>_SECTION_</i></div></header>

BUT! As I recall, that code was specific to the earlier version that I was using. Two questions, please:

If I want to create a similar header structure using the latest version of Calibre, how should I edit the code above?

If I have a work with several chapters, and subchapters inside, And I want both on every page, should I use something like <i>_SECTION_, _TOP_LEVEL_SECTION_ </i> within the amended code?

So that the output would be something like

Book I, Chapter 2

Thanks!

Blaine
