The question of producing epub-friendly HTML came to the WWers from a DP submitter the other day. They were referred to this article: http://www.pgdp.net/wiki/The_Proofreader%27s_Guide_to_EPUB#How_to_Auth or_HTML_That_Converts_Gracefully_to_EPUB Al -----Original Message----- From: gutvol-d-bounces@lists.pglaf.org [mailto:gutvol-d-bounces@lists.pglaf.org] On Behalf Of hmonroe1@verizon.net Sent: Sunday, January 15, 2012 9:37 PM To: gutvol-d@lists.pglaf.org Subject: [gutvol-d] Producing epub ready HTML I would appreciate some guidance on what adjustments would need to be made to the HTML produced by Guiguts to make it more amenable to conversion to epub format by epubmaker or otherwise. That is what works well in terms of how the table of contents is presented, use of CSS versus styles, page numbering? I have seen some discussion on this list but I did not manage to find this in the list archives. Also, is there an automated tool that could warn of features that will not convert to epub well? As context I am the lead developer for guiguts although I will be putting less time than I have been. The latest version of Guiguts (1.0.3) is much less buggy and runs out of the box on Windows and Mac. The Windows version has bundled with it epubmaker, the Gnutenberg Press, and the Open Jade SGML parser (onsgmls.exe) to validate HTML and PGTEI. It would be helpful to get pointers to some examples of files that convert well and those that do not. Incidentally I need some assistance in identifying exactly which DTD and other files are needed for onsgmls.exe to validate XHTML 1.1. Perl developers are welcome to help. Hunter
