Oy the joys of new technology [View all]

Working on an essay on OWS and working on the kinks now. It will need a once more, but also I need to learn how to convert to different ebook files. So right now got the thing converted to EPUB, and learned a few things... THE NAME of the file is the name of the book... so... will need to rename the FINAL file to the tittle of the Essay. #OCCUPY: Guide to the Perplexed. Simple, yes. But I also used some of my own photos, so will go though this draft to see layout and other issues... ah the joy of learning new tech.
It will give me a week or so to also mark MAJOR editing issues... as well as stupid layout ones. Why I exported the thing.
Ah the joy of new formats.
Will have it for sale for a nominal fee at both Kindle and Nook, and Ibook... and I mean the nominal part. Most people charge a lot more, but hell, this is needed. I might even put it on Lulu, have an account after all, for whatever we need for a slight profit... I know some people need hard paper copies.
Oh and one last thing I used Calibre, it will play well with PDF, not other formats. Oh and Pages will not export to EPUB, but just text.
As I said, all the joys of this... I figured using some of my photos was a good idea. I mean I have but a few.
Ah first issue... where did them footnotes go to? Will have to make them endnote and see if that works...
Why you never, ever release something like this before a dry run or two. (For the record I much prefer footnotes, but the format will simply NOT do it)
