I changed that. It still looks huge.

Got the cover working btw... was a dumb error, had my cover image called 'Cover.jpg. and the code said 'cover.jpg' which Calibre seemed to ignore but not my reader.

Also I noticed some things aren't wrapping properly and a sentence goes on past the page for a bit.

Ok, so Pages is shit. This is my scientific conclusion. I did the whole thing with Open Office and converted it. Which all looks great except for TOC and some images, but may edit that in Sigil once I work out how that works.

Things to remember:
CaSe sensitivity in file name (the wold is not all M$) a missing colon or semi-colon or improper value, can cause that selector to be ignored completely. The stylesheet, without knowing the selectors that apply to the problem, is mostly useless. I don't see something that screams "I am the overall Body style", that should have set the "base" for all those 'relative' sizes. Glad you got it mostly working ![]() |

![]() Sigil and editing CSS is a pain: The workaround for creating a simple 300 pages Epub is not easy when the original text comes in .doc without styling, containing images and cells, but having to edit CSS in another software in a third step is far far far away from an optimized tool/system. Hope Apple guys arrange their software soon (haven't said anything to my post in their support forum in a month's time), or hope Calibre becomes the final software for this, but it's not yet ready. Ok, so we'll have to pay a programmer to try to solve the problem soon... If we solve it I'll let you know! Thanks a lot mates. |

We use LyX here. Export to HTML -> Import to Calibre -> Generate ePub/Mobi. If the world is fortunate, Microsoft might bring out an eBook export facility to Office. Though I'm guessing even then that'll have to be tweaked a lot. Sincerely, best of luck, Paul. |
