A Title page where I don't want one

BeccaPrice · 02-27-2013, 02:08 PM

I'm going on a trip in a couple of weeks. I've listed all my flight information, confirmations, and reservation numbers in a txt file (created with Notepad ++ on Windows 7) that I then converted to mobi with Calibre and loaded on my Kindle.

The .txt file starts like this:

Spoiler:

But when I look at it on my Kindle (paperwhite, if that matters), the words Trip Information are on one page, and I have to turn the page to get at the additional information.

Is there any way to have this all on one page?

thanks,

Use the settings unduer structure detection to not insert page breaks.

I changed Chapter Mark to None, and deleted the text in the "Detect Chapters At" and "Insert Page Breaks Before" fields, and I still get a page break between the first line in the txt file and the actual text. Am i missing something?

The Paperwhite should be able to read TXT natively, so you don't need to convert to mobi.

Set the txt format to plain under txt input in the conversion dialog.
