Atlantis Word Processor Forum

Thanks very much, Robert!

I'll study the references you provided.

And thanks for your help... without which I would have given up on the whole idea of embedding fonts into a Kindle eBook.

Robert, I tried over and over... to be sure I wasn't making a mistake somewhere... and tried all three versions of the sample you sent me... But no luck... the fonts would show in the eBook created by Atlantis, but when I uploaded the ePub, or MOBI, or Docx file to Amazon KDP, the result was that ...

Thanks very much, Robert! And, yes, I most certainly will give you a good word. That's what this little eBook is about... it's a kid's picture book, plus "How these images were formatted and inserted", and I'll plan a page for "How this font was embedded". I THOUGHT I did everything just as you ...

Can someone help me figure this out? I want to use a "child friendly" font such as Comic Sans MS in a Kindle eBook. Using Atlantis, I can embed Comic Sans MS into my eBook, and Amazon Kindle software does not strip it out: Comic Sans MS does appear in my final Kindle eBook. Comic Sans MS properties ...

Thanks, Robert... some really good stuff there... and also your previous post about image quality. I will dig in now and study a bit. Meanwhile... to answer a question from one of your earlier posts: Finally, and most importantly to me, the pictures you uploaded are 4:3 pictures. This is OK. But ...

Robert and Roland, Thank you both for your input. One thing I'm beginning to understand... or at least, recognize... is that there is plenty of reason for all the conflicting information "out there". Perhaps it is the merging of print and digital... which are different... and also the same. An ...

Roland, I've been doing pretty much the same thing you described... trying many different things, trying to find the best way to create the best picture files for the Kindle. I would like to find free software for my readers if I could find one that does just as good a job as Adobe Photoshop ...

Roland and Robert, I think I'm going to give up on the idea of formatting images within Word or within Atlantis. Photoshop Elements is not expensive... around $50 for the latest, I think... and it beats the socks off anything else I've tried. If you want to see it, here is the link to the original ...

Thanks to Robert for the tip about applying a template. ... I am really eager to know how well CJ's plan to use specially prepared graphics 'for the web' will work out. I hope she will let us know. I assume that 'for the web' means something with low resolution (96 pixels per inch, I guess). I do ...

Thank you, Robert!

I'll be working through this today, and will report back with my progress... or lack thereof should that be the case.

Thanks again... I really do appreciate your taking the time to write all this out!

If you have problems applying a template in MS Word, we cannot help you with this. You should ask your question on the MS Office Forums. I see now why you misunderstood me. Ok... the situation is this: Let's say I'm using Atlantis , and have my special template, " The Pie " loaded as the default ...

I'm not talking about MS Word... I'm talking about changing templates in Atlantis Word Processor.

I would always start with Atlantis, but I don't always always have that luxury. Because I write and run a website for Kindle newbies, I often am asked to help with their problems... so must start where they are. I'm glad you asked, because I have another, related problem. I can't seem to properly ...

I didn't... and don't... think the "DOCX to MOBI" converter does magic. I do think Atlantis does magic... which I tell everybody who will listen, and some who won't. I was the one doing something wrong... as I did suggest in my question. I did not properly prepare the images before inserting them ...

I tried to attach my DOCX file, but I don't think it worked.

(I tried twice.)

Can I attach it in an email to you?

Yes, I have a sample file to upload to you. The file was created in MS Word, and has been saved as Atlantis. This is not unique, I've had it happen many times and have tried everything I can think of to solve the problem. I'm now trying to help a new Atlantis user, and have created a short sample ...

I've tried everything I can think of to solve this problem, but can't find a solution. I'm working with MS Word with images, saved to Atlantis, and creating Kindle MOBI files. I can go either way... upload the DOC or DOCX file directly to Amazon KDP... and have it create the MOBI file. OR Have ...

Thank you very much!

Will someone please tell me how to make a file read only?

I know it's there somewhere, but I can't find it, now that I need it.

Thanks!

CJ
