Epub Issues

Post by raydaniel »

Hi,

I've noticed a couple of issues with exported epub documents and I was wondering if I'm doing something wrong.

Given a simple epub that uses "Heading 1" to designate chapters, I notice the following:

1. Even though "Heading 1" is centered, the epub chapter headers are not centered.

2. The font on the resulting epub does not look good on a Kindle. There doesn't seem to be a way to change the font face on the Kindle.

Has anyone else seen these issues? Any suggestions?

Thanks!

Hello, Ray

1. This is a bug. You need to fix the epub for yourself with Sigil, Calibre or another epub editor. Open the epub, look for the .css file and change the style. Please note that NWP exports font sizes in pixels. You will need to convert them into ems. eg: 1 em for the main text, 1.4 em for the headings (that is 140% the main text's size) and so on.

2. NWP does not embed fonts. Fonts are to be embedded when you edit the epub file. Get the latest version of Calibre.

I hope that helps. Any trouble let me (us) know.

Greetings, Henry
