So much for repeatable process. Warning: If you’re reading this, it’s very likely that you don’t care. This is a long string of notes to myself about what goes wrong with formatting. BLUF: Checklist updated with: Check cellTable and span numbers from highest to lowest. cellTable should be in single digits. span should not exceedContinue reading “ISO Audit Failure”

Last Kindle Issue?
I put all the system notifications in the System Notification style. It may not be creative, but obvious has its own virtue. I have the normal style (really “Default Paragraph Style”) configured to indent after an end-of-line (“carriage return” sounds old fashioned, even to me). I don’t tab, it just auto-indents the first line ofContinue reading “Last Kindle Issue?”
More CSS Debugging
Here’s the chain. I start with a spreadsheet. Based on AI advice (that seems sound), I paste as RTF into word processor and set the style. It’s already picking up whitespace. I have table formatting in this style. It’s the font. The export to epub. The vertical spacing has gone nuts. The Kindle version looksContinue reading “More CSS Debugging”
Spreadsheets Part Duex
Because there’s always a “two”. Tonight’s plan of attack is to fix the spreadsheet layout so it fits on a Kindle screen. I’ve always known this was a risk. It has come to pass.

The mount point contains: .active_content_sandbox .bcache audible documents fonts “documents” seems logical. That contains three directories (dictionaries, Downloads, My Clippings.sdr) andContinue reading “epub Version”
24 Cookies
I just put 24 cookies in the oven. (Ghirardelli Coffee Dark Chocolate Chip cookies.) Cookies are generally counted in dozens, so 24 is 2 dozen + 4 aka twenty eight. For those of you who don’t deal with non-base-10 number systems, this can be confusing. The digits work the same way base-10 digits do. TheContinue reading “24 Cookies”
HFY – Follow up
I’ve “watched” a bunch of these, now. They have even inspired a speech, which I may or may not actually present. I’m not sure Toastmasters is ready for it, which makes it both tempting and intimidating at the same time. I have two things to comment upon: Presentation and Content. Digression: I donated $50 toContinue reading “HFY – Follow up”
