Curious about conversion to 4 Letter extensions.

Starson17 · 04-25-2010, 08:58 AM

When I select convert, there is a destination format type in the upper right corner of the conversion screen. The pulldown is supposed to show all the formats I can convert to. I see all the 3 letter formats, but the 4 letter formats (mobi, epub, etc.) all appear as 3 dots (ellipses).

I run a large font on my screen (a 10 foot interface on my TV). Is that why? Do others see this? It's not a problem, I'm just curious.

yeah basically the four letter ones dont fit in the space allocated to the drop down list with your large font size.

I'm not using a large font and don't see the 4 letter extensions either.

However, I am using WindowBlinds (changes the appearance, but not the functionality, of windows) which on occasion does alter things enough to cause issues. (For instance, thicker button borders causing certain screens to be mis-aligned, etc.)
