One little unmatched pointy-bracket and the whole text changes fonts. Finding the pointy-bracket at fault in a 120,000 word ms takes some hair-pulling, especially if it occurs at several points; plus the html has more than one way to give a command, but <em>only one <\/em>of those ways works well in a text conversion through various formats, so a future problem won&#8217;t show up in Preview, only by eyeballing the code.&#8212;As an example, pointy-bracket i will give you italics in html, but won&#8217;t work well in conversion: you have to have it as a &#8216;statement&#8217; that&#8217;s a whole line long, ie, the long command that involves a font appearance change. Then you find silly things like a command invoking red ink and bold text, followed by two pointy-bracket slash spans that cut it off and make it not display. So that wouldn&#8217;t show in Preview either, but it could cause future troubles in conversion.<br \/>\n I&#8217;ll finish that this evening and start working with the image placement and front-matter html.<\/p>\n<p>All of which is to say&#8212;we&#8217;re getting there.
