Document Name: Stanza and epub formats for e-books Document Description: Stanza and epub formats for e-books2009/01/12 Just this week one of my e-book purchasers wrote to tell me that he was unhappy with the formatting because he wanted to read it on his iPhone. I had no idea what it would take to do that but looked around and found Stanza. If I load a pdf into the desktop version of this, I can save it back in "epub" format and that should improve the reading experience somewhat. It isn't perfect - the conversion doesn't seem to understand my chapter headings so it just treats them as more text. I'm sure I can fix that eventually but even without that it is a big improvement. He also mentioned the U.S. centric formatting - I used "US Letter", which won't print well in Europe. I don't quite follow that: US Letter is smaller than A4 so why would that be a problem? Maybe I'm just not thinking that through.. wouldn't there just be a little extra white space?? Anyway, here's the thing: if you bought one of my e-books and want it in a different format, just let me know. I'll do everything I can to help you get something you can use on whatever device you are using. If I have to send it to you in Microsoft Word, I'll even do that! Really: don't suffer with a format that doesn't work for you. Just tell me what you need.
