Atlantis Word Processor Forum

Thanks again. I'm embarrassed to have missed that.

Thanks so much for your help, Robert. I'll check out the reference you gave and find out how to produce the special character for a character return.

I have often used Atlantis to convert doc and docx files to HTML as part of the process of designing an ebook in ePub format, and have not had any problems in the past. I've just received a docx file which is giving me enormous problems in that in the HTML file instead of seeing paragraphs starting ...

Thanks, Robert. I've done that, but it doesn't seem to force a pagebreak in the Smashwords Meatgrinder. Back to the manual and drawing board.

Sorry, Robert, when I tried to work through the long set of instructions you gave me the other day I just got overwhelmed. I was able to do my daughter's short story by working through each paragraph and section, and she was able to upload it to Smashwords and have it accepted. She was very pleased ...

Thanks again, Robert, that's even more helpful.

I'll work through the process you sent me, and in the mean time will check with my daughter to see if I can send a copy of her story to you. She's in Canada and I'm in Australia, so it won't be until tomorrow that I get a reply.

Unfortunately Smashwords won't accept ebooks in ePub; they insist that the text be in doc format but formatted in pernickety ways, and then they feed this doc file into their Meatgrinder to produce ...

Thank you. The solution was so simple that I would never have thought of it.

I have a large document which I want to make into an ePub book. The document is already in HTML, but the HTML is so awful that it would take me forever.

So, is there a way to strip the HTML with Atlantis and start again?

Regards, Alex

YES!

Many thanks, Robert. I think I'm going to enjoy using Atlantis.

I've just registered Atlantis, mainly for use in preparing ebooks, so I still have some exploring to do. But I need an answer to this problem quite soon. I've downloaded a text file from the internet which I think would make a very good ebook. The text has a pilcrow character (¶) at the end of ...
