I just posted this same question in the Sigil area...I hope to not be a burden by doing that, I just feel like I'm in a very grey area as to where to ask this...so I'm trying to draw knowledge from both. :D
Thank you kindly in advance for any and all help. So here's my question, and I hope it's clear:
I have generated a TOC in Sigil. The TOC includes my title page as it's first item. Now, the title page I designed, happens to not be text. It's an image. Something I wanted to try out. This means, of course, that I have not assigned any tags to it. It's not an h1, or h2. It is simply an <img>...
At any rate, this item, which is the first item in my TOC, needs to be converted to MOBI, (or any Kindle format, let's say). The problem is that, after conversion (with Calibre), the generated TOC does not include this item. This means that my book ends up beginning at its copyright page.
There is no sign of the title page. I can tweak conversions so that the title page is parsed to the MOBI format, but it is NEVER present as a TOC item. It's just not there. Sometimes I can "scroll" back to it when previewing with Adobe Digital Editions, or the Kindle previewer. The point is, this item is not present in the output file (MOBI eBook)
I also asked this in my other post:
Should I not be using both programs to tweak/convert eBooks? Any better ideas are very welcome.
Thank you once again to anyone that can help me understand a bit more of the process.
