So if you want to generate an epub file that has large images and works across a number of devices you have to choose an output profile whose screen size is <= the screen size of the smallest of those devices.

Presumably one of your comic readers suffers from the same limitation as ADE - not rescaling images.

Looks like Kovid answered your question, which is good because now I know the answer too.

Yes. It makes sense, too. Thanks, Kovid.

I'd love to see a recipe for GoComics (specifically, all Calvin and Hobbes strips), if possible. Thanks in advance!

I'm trying to make my own recipe for the sun.co.uk but I'm having a few probs

I'm using just one feed at the minute to speed up downloading while testing and I'm trying to fetch just the main article.

The custom recipe I've come up with is

Code:

class AdvancedUserRecipe1268409464(BasicNewsRecipe):
    title          = u'The Sun'
    oldest_article = 3
    max_articles_per_feed = 100
    no_stylesheets = True
    extra_css      = '.headline {font-size: x-large;} \n .fact { padding-top: 10pt  }'

    keep_only_tags    = [ 
                           dict(name='div', attrs={'class':'medium-centered'})
                          ,dict(name='div', attrs={'class':'article'}) 
                        ]
    remove_tags    = [dict(name='div', attrs={'class':'slideshow'})]




    feeds          = [(u'News', u'http://www.thesun.co.uk/sol/homepage/feeds/rss/article312900.ece')]

    def print_version(self, url):
          return url.replace('?OTC-RSS&ATTR=News', '?print=yes')
    def print_version(self, url):
          return url.replace('?OTC-RSS&ATTR=Royals', '?print=yes')
    def print_version(self, url):
          return url.replace('?OTC-RSS&ATTR=Gizmo', '?print=yes')

But this is not fetching anything.

Can anyone give me some pointers please?

I've got a draft, but working, recipe for the 150+ comic strips at GoComics. I've tested it with Calvin and Hobbes and asked it to pull in the last 99 strips. That worked great, although it took a while. I'm not sure how far back you can go, but there was a link to the first C&H strip ever back in the '90's IIRC.

However, the recipe still pulls images that have a small GoComics logo on the border. That logo does not appear when the strips are viewed directly. I've figured out why, but I haven't quite fixed the recipe to get the clean images.

I'll release it (when I'm done tweaking) as a companion to my earlier Comics.com recipe.

Starson, thank you, that would be great!

Maybe it would be easier to have a filed for icons in BasicNewsRecipe class?

I'm still trying to stumble my way through a custom script to fetch the news from the sun website, I've sorted it so it changes the web page into the print page and leaves out the slideshows but it fetches all sorts of rubbish after the story including all the 'connect to us' stuff

How would I just get the headline and the main body of the article?

Here's the source code from a basic printpage from the sun.co.uk

Code:

var hbx=_hbEvent("pv");hbx.vpc="HBX0100u";hbx.gn="ngd.thesun.co.uk";
// set vars to be used below
var urlReturnCid = "";
var urlReturnAttr = "";
// First, we load the URL into a variable
var url = window.location.href;
// Next, split the url by the #
var qparts = url.split("#");
// Check that there is a querystring
if (qparts.length == 2) {
// Set the second half of string to var
var query = qparts[1];
// Next, split that string by the &
var varQ = query.split("&");
if (varQ.length == 2) {
// Lastly split by = and assign to vars
var retQ1 = varQ[0].split("=");
var retQ2 = varQ[1].split("=");
urlReturnCid = retQ1[1];
urlReturnAttr = retQ2[1];
}

What tags do I need to keep and what ones should I drop?

Thanks.

Thanks for all your help!

The problem seems to be in your reader and the size of the images. There's nothing I can do about either other than suggest a different reader. Kovid may be able to help when he comes back.

I'm posting a new recipe for gocomics.com. It has an image size adjustment, so you can try it and reduce the image size to get it to fit your reader. It has some of the same comics as comics.com.

Starson17 · 03-13-2010, 04:01 PM

Here is the gocomics.com recipe I promised. It has 200+ comics, about 3/4 general and 1/4 political/editorial.

There are 3 options that need to be set, so this recipe is best used as a custom recipe. They are:

the comic strips to get,
the number of past issues/days of the strip to get, and
the comic image size.

The default has 7 days of 15 comics (10 general and 5 editorial) at a moderately large size.

I pulled the last 99 images of Calvin and Hobbes as a test. It retrieved them all. The main C&H page has a link to the first strip back in the 1980's, but I have no idea if all strips are available.

Please be conservative when setting the options so you don't overload their servers and only get comics you will actually read. Anyone setting a daily retrieve for all 200+ comics with 1000 back issues at maximum image size will be severely frowned upon by Those-Who-Frown (and their computer will lock up for the next few years.)

Enjoy!
