keith- what's your point? i mean, i can tell you're being dismissive. but i'm quite sure you don't know what you're looking at. so why don't you spell things out, so i can sort you out? -bowerbird

Oh quite the opposite is the fact. But, I am not going to lecture you on the points of formatting, marking up and down list and tables in a appealing way, not the identification of such entities in a text. You know them all to well yourself. The fact of matter remains that light mark-up will not do for appealling list or tables. Hereare some examples for your test suite: 1 T'was the night before Christmas, and all through house, not a soul was stiring, 4 not even a mouse. T'was the night before Christmas, 1 and all through house, not a soul was stiring, not even a mouse. 4 1 T'was the night before Christmas, 2 and all through house, 3 not a soul was stiring, 4 not even a mouse. regards Keith Am 17.12.2010 um 08:50 schrieb Bowerbird@aol.com:

Would it be too hard to tag works, as they are added, that were produced to stand up to the conversion process? A checkbox, or simply an explanation, on the submission form? If these works are tagged now, it might save time in the future, when all this has been settled.

I don't quite see what advantage that would give us? Please explain. Wouldn't it be easier to tag those works you *don't* want converted? Maybe a meta tag in the HTML file? <meta name="PG.autoconvert" contents="0" /> Note that if you provide a custom EPUB for your book, it will not generate an EPUB. eg. These books have custom EPUBs provided by the producer: http://www.gutenberg.org/ebooks/30735 http://www.gutenberg.org/ebooks/30751 Note also that these books don't have Kindle editions. That is because kindlegen chokes on those custom EPUBs. -- Marcello Perathoner webmaster@gutenberg.org
