centered paragraphs in order to fix centering in full justification mode. Use Generate font names to determine whether the specified-fonts option will be switched on in the iBooks XML file, or whether font names will be suppressed. This option will cause a file called com.apple.ibooks.display-options.xml to be added to the Epub file, under the folder META-INF. If you submit the Epub to Lulu, this may cause an “unmanifested file” error, so clear this option for Lulu submissions. • Generate iBooks XML: if this option and Optimize for iBooks are both checked, generates the file com.apple.ibooks.display-options.xml when necessary. • Optimize for Mobipocket: anchors are inserted before paragraphs to prevent style loss on navigation (as recommended by Amazon guidelines), and no paragraph tags are used within a list item. • Mobipocket anchor optimization: if cleared, and Optimize for Mobipocket is checked, anchors are no longer inserted before paragraphs. You might want to clear this if you have long paragraphs containing footnotes, for example, and want to achieve accurate navigation regardless of any styling side-effects that can be caused by bookmarks within paragraphs on the Kindle platform. • Credit Jutoh: adds Jutoh as a book producer in the Epub/Mobipocket metadata. • Start page guide type: specifies the guide type that will be substituted for %STARTPAGE% in a section’s guide type to indicate the first reading page. For iBooks, it is “other.reader-start-page”, and for Mobipocket, it is “text”. • Visible URLs: specifies whether the URL will be added to the text, for printable documents. If “None”, no URLs will be added. If “Always”, the URL will always be added. If “Intelligent”, Jutoh will check whether the URL is already in the linked text. • Epub version: Specifies the Epub version to generate. Epub 3 generation is currently experimental. Styles This category controls style-related options. More about styles can be found in Chapter 13: Working With Style Sheets. • Style sheet: specifies the style sheet to be used in this configuration. • Paragraphs to exclude: the comma-separated paragraph styles whose paragraphs should be excluded from the book. You can use * to mean all characters, for example “Only*” will cause all paragraphs with a style name beginning “Only” to be excluded, except for those specified in Paragraphs to include. For examples, see Chapter 13: Working With Style Sheets. • Paragraphs to include: the comma-separated paragraph styles whose paragraphs will be exempt from exclusions. You can use * to mean all characters. For example, if this property has the value of “Only Epub”, paragraphs styles with “Only Epub” will be retained, but (assuming “Only*” in Paragraphs to exclude), all other paragraphs whose style name begins with “Only” will be removed. Thus you can include or exclude paragraphs in your document depending on the configuration. For examples, see Chapter 13: Working With Style Sheets. • First paragraph style: the style to use for first paragraphs after a heading when importing into 74
