Greg,
Ebookmaker is working again. Thanks.
Regarding using RST to generate PG formats, I found that if I avoid PG extensions I can use the following command to generate my HTML from RST:
pandoc Vishnupuranam.rst --shift-heading-level-by=1 -f rst -t html -s -o Vishnupuranam.html
The shift heading is necessary because if you don't use it the title and the top level headings will both use H1. It sounds like Ebookmaker has a problem with that.
I use this command to generate plain text:
pandoc Vishnupuranam.rst -f rst -t plain -s -o Vishnupuranam.txt
followed by this command to fix the line endings (because I work on a Linux box):
unix2dos Vishnupuranam.txt
This does a pretty good job, but it strips out asterisks that indicate italicized text. I can live with that if PG can. There is a web utility that handles the italics better:
This produces output with some extra characters that need to be removed (footnotes look like [^1] instead of [1], section headings begin with ###), but that is simple enough.
