Re: Yosemite

I have had Yosemite for several weeks now and Nisus has continued to work exactly as it did before.

Re: Problem on Kindle conversion

Henry, you are totally vindicated. Thank you so much. Now that I have my Kindle Paperwhite, I have been able to check your recommendations and they are spot-on. Changing the pxs to ems in Sigil does the trick. There is no longer any need to go via Word or even involve Calibre at all. Having done the...

Re: Problem on Kindle conversion

Alkinea was short-lived. It needs a .odt document to work from, but this is easily achieved. Less easy is the fact that it uses Kindlegen to make the conversion and, try as I might, I cannot get Kindlegen to run on my Mac. So It is back to Calibre and keep my fingers crossed.

Re: Problem on Kindle conversion

Hi Henry. The sleigh hasn't passed over yet, but I followed your instructions to the letter and got a copy of my newest book (still unfinished) to display perfectly on the Kindle Previewer and the Kindle App. That being the case, presumably it will display perfectly on my new Kindle Paperwhite when ...

Re: Problem on Kindle conversion

Thanks, Henry. Santa delivered my new Kindle early, but I won't get my grubby paws on it before the big day. I will definitely give it a go as soon as I can, though.

Re: Problem on Kindle conversion

At the moment, the NWP master documents of my books are saved as Word (.doc) documents, then resaved as Html and converted to ePub in Sigil. This works perfectly (ToC included) and I could stick with it if I have to. Ideally, however, I would like to be able to do the whole lot without leaving NWP, ...

Re: Problem on Kindle conversion

Thanks, Henry. I already have the Kindle App for Mac on my computer. Ironically, the conversion looked all right on that, and it looked all right on the online previewer as well. It was only on my Kindle that the text was microscopic. I don't understand it at all. I know you can vary the font size o...

Re: Problem on Kindle conversion

Since making the original query, my Kindle has unexpectedly died on me. It seemed fine in the morning as I did a bit of reading during my coffee break, but it had given up the ghost by lunchtime, and has remained inert ever since. I must, therefore, consider the possibility that the issues I raised ...

Problem on Kindle conversion

Hello. My first post.. I am a writer, published mainly on Kindle, and, until very recently, I worked perfectly happily in Pages '09. As I am sure you know, Apple has just 'updated' (actually downgraded) Pages with a new version, which is barely more capable than Google Docs. Therefore I took the ste...
