No such luck for me. Midway through the quantum physics sequence the font gets really tiny.

Haven't got that far yet. What're you using to read it?

The reader that is built into Calibre.

So far it looks fine on an actual Kindle, although I haven't read the full document yet. A few random points in the file had acceptable fonts.

I haven't tested the Calibre builtin reader.

Bizarre; this doesn't happen on my phone. No idea what might cause it - sorry!

The epub is fine (no, great!). My problem is with the conversion to MOBI.

Exactly which page has gone wrong for you? I've now done a direct conversion to MOBI (ie not via EPUB) so that mightbe worth trying.

Thanks, I'll check it out. May I ask, what tools are you using?

Comment author: ciphergoth 15 August 2011 07:44:09AM 0 points [-]

I'm using Calibre. The scripts to generate the EPUB and MOBI files are in the sources.
