RE: Re: Automating creation of eBooks in Mobipocket format

The same page referenced below has a link to the developer's guide which
gives a list of the supported HTML markup. Ordered and unordered bullets
work fine for me. Tables have severe restrictions. Font sizes often depend
on the displaying devices available fonts.

One thing I noticed about Mobipocket's Creator is it didn't retain
formatting on bulleted data, diff size fonts, etc. It butchered my 
layout by taking phrases on separate lines and compressed them all 
together. But I must confess it's been a year since I tried it.

Looks like a great tool for narrative novels but not so good for 
reference manuals, bulleted instructions, etc. Anyone else had this 
trouble? Thx, j
