Current Project on Ebook Library

[amalthia]

Since I learned how to use Macros in Microsoft Word 2007 I've been slowly but surely creating LRF/Mobi/and epub versions of my absolute favorite stories hosted at the Ebook Library as well as most of the stories posted recently. This is the reason for long delays between updates besides the holidays. My current project is converting all the Top Ten most read fics at the archive, however that will not take long since many already have all four ebook formats.

My question/challenge to the community is does anyone have any specific conversion requests for stories already listed on the archive that are currently only in RTF format?

For anyone that adds a request I'll honor it if you leave feedback/review at the author's post at the Ebook Library. :)

Leave a link here leading to your review of the story and I'll get it converted in the order in which it was requested. :)

The macros may not be as useful as just knowing how to create your own. If you have Word 2007 or whatever the newest version is it's really easy to record any repeatable actions.

The key for accurate and consistent conversions is to somehow convert your Word docs to html (Filtered) and clean up the code. I have to have the tutorial done by a certain date for class so I hope to have it done in April. This month has a lot of assignments due. The tutorials in this LJ should help though.

If you're not creating table of contents or embedding images you may be able to clean up your Word files, upload those to Calibre and convert the doc to mobi...It's easy and quick. You'd have to switch out the ^l in word to ^p between each paragraph though.
