If I see any other abnormalities with my e-version as I read, is there someone I could contact about them?<BR/><BR/>It's in my best interest to try and make the e-versions the best they can be.<BR/><BR/>Thanks!Karen Burnhamhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16803309172414793939noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8573136768377847579.post-74252167451210196392008-05-22T17:05:00.000-05:002008-05-22T17:05:00.000-05:00Thanks Karen, Our electronic editions editor has b...Thanks Karen, Our electronic editions editor has been informed.royhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13479073112151674855noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8573136768377847579.post-67187401866292373522008-05-21T11:13:00.000-05:002008-05-21T11:13:00.000-05:00Roy-Thanks for dropping by!

I get the version that's formatted for the eBook that they sell. <BR/><BR/>There was another problem with that issue that I hadn't noticed in either #213 or #214: occasionally the first sentence of a paragraph would have all the words run together, making one long word that would go off the end of the page. For instance I've got a paragraph from "Dragonfly Summer" that goes:<BR/><BR/>What do I remember? I remember Howie running along the edge [next eBook page]<BR/>ofthebeach,longhairandleatherjacketflappingwi[I can't see the rest of it]<BR/>Sophie in one of her skimpy little outfits....<BR/><BR/>Thanks for your help! Any improvement in the electronic edition is a good move in my (e)book.Karen Burnhamhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16803309172414793939noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8573136768377847579.post-15463044632050819572008-05-21T08:25:00.000-05:002008-05-21T08:25:00.000-05:00Quote "That's the last we hear from her for five p...Quote "That's the last we hear from her for five pages (presumably the printed version of the story has clearer indications of scene shifts than my electronic copy - one of the few complaints I have with it so far.)"<BR/><BR/>Hi Karen, I'm glad you got something from the issue. Can I ask if you were reading the review PDF or the Fictionwise edition? If the latter maybe we can improve layout or clarity to reduce the problem.royhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13479073112151674855noreply@blogger.com
