>My RST file is UTF-8 and has a first line showing it as such.  I do have the char set I want, so I'm not sure what you're getting at.

Never mind, I see it now – 1.0.txt is your UTF-8 encoding.

>I haven't tried using Adobe Digital Editions, which I assume is what you mean by ADE.  I know the ASCII family trees will look like crap in pretty much any e-book reader other than the plain text reader I wrote for the One Laptop Per Child project

Okay, but why submit something that people can’t actually read?

>Any problems with the non-image versions of the e-books must be caused by the epub generator.  I'm just submitting an RST file with images in a subdirectory.

Okay, but there are certainly ways of doing what you want to do successfully. Why choose a method which is not successful, and then blame the tool?

>For the PDF it looks like the images are present in the document when you click on the link to the  PDF but when you download the PDF and open the downloaded file you don't get the images.  Looks like a problem with the PDF generating code.

Again, you chose the tools you used to make your e-book.
