It sounds like they are in a 1990s bubble of emulating the PDF concept in a web page.Īlso educational stuff or ANYTHING written that can only be consumed while online smells of the worst sort of DRM.

The Redshelf people neither understand epubs or real electronic texts. There are only a few instances of this and we’d love to see if there is something you can do to prevent the QR Codes from being cut off.ĭoes anyone here know anything about this? Anything at ALL? I've never- never-heard of any ePUB retailer ASKING for page numbers to be embedded in an ePUB, a reflowable ePUB, and I've never heard of anything so bizarre as page sizes somehow being assigned or.whatever. It’s as if some kind of “space” needs to be added at the end of these chapters. These are QR Codes, specifically, which are important to navigation in the case of. Is there a way to easily address this kind of issue by somehow appending the ePub file, without throwing off compatibility with other ePub readers? Or would we need to develop a separate ePub file specifically for this vendor?Īnother issue is that a few graphics at the bottom of the unit pages get cut off (clipped) at the bottom of the page. We would like your help in embedding these into the ePub file, if possible. Rather than RedShelf’s arbitrary placement of their page numbers, we would like to assign our own page numbers that would coincide with the page breaks in the print book. RedShelf displays each chapter as one scrollable “page,” with the specific “page numbers” as callouts to the right. We brought this up to them, and they replied that the pagination issues are a result of page numbers not being embedded in the ePub. The page numbers in their browser display system sit off to the right of the page, and push the content out of alignment, and/or introduce large gaps between paragraphs. We uploaded ePub that you did for us to RedShelf, and in reviewing its functionality, we are seeing problems caused by their proprietary pagination.
