Possible Bug: Odd Glitches in Formatting .lit to .lrf

RJ_Cruze_Jr · 07-29-2009, 09:40 PM

Hi Kovid,

Converting .lit to .lrf in 6.3 (I've been using 5.13 up to this point), I noticed a couple issues:

First, I'm no longer able to control the indent spacing -- I tried both the "Minimum para. indent:" setting, as well as putting "p{text-indent: XXpt}" in the CSS Override section. No luck.

Second, I noticed that the centered text is no longer centered.

Mind you, I'm not ruling out that I might have messed up some setting or another along the way

but I haven't really played with any of the features as of yet.

If you need, I have the source .lit file, the new .lrf, as well as the old .lrf I converted under the previous version of calibre for reference.

Of course, if this is something you're already working on (or if I've messed up somewhere along the way), please disregard.

It could be a bug (the entire conversion system was rewritten and LRF received the least love), so open a ticket and attach your files.

Aww, poor LRF, it's dying for some love.. Please give it some love!

Okay! Done and done. I put all three files in a single .zip.

I've tried converting a LIT to LRF and found some of the font sizes to be WAY off base. Works fine converted to ePub. Guess I'll have to open a ticket.

Especially since I finally got calibre figured out and tweaked (after a lot of trial and error) to the point where I can get exactly the output I want.

Ticket #3000 opened. Any idea what version Calibre this will be fixed in?

It's going to be a little while, I'm kinda swamped at the moment so I'm fixing only either important (crash) or very easy to fix bugs.
