First page blank

Hi folks,
When I convert a LRF file to a EPUB with Edit Book it inserts a blank page before the book cover. Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks,
kimpe

Use the e-book editor to remove it (you will need to determine what is causing this.
1)segment file with no content?: Simple: Delete and save the book
2)The Style contains a PageBreak command. Make changes
3)Lots of Blank Paragraphs (before the cover <IMG ): Clean up that mess. Margin-top is the elegant way to code blank space above

The Why is as varied as there are drops in the ocean. Only the code will tell

I'm sorry, I should have been more specific. My bad. The blank page only happens in the Calibre book viewer. Both import and export tablet profile in common options are set to default profile. The problem doesn't happen on my Galaxy E. I just automatically thought it would look the same on my viewer (WYSIWYG). After loading it on my Galaxy everything looked great. There be something different in the newest edition of Calibre because I've never seen this happen before. Just wondering......

Hmm! LRF ran on a Tablet origionally?

If I got it correctly, Import profile should match/be close to the original device the book was formatted for (Or Generic). Think of Calibre is taking a square and reshaping to a rectangle, which woud be different if you started with a Circle.


I converted what few LRF I had a long time ago. I also touch up every book with the editor so I don't see any odd behavior.

Do try Generic Input for books NOT designed/ or all you have NOW is a Tablet Version.
