While it's not helping to improve my almost non-existant Latin comprehension, I'm really enjoying reading Umberto Eco's "The Name of the Rose" with

It's a fun book for medieval schismatic tangents.

I've been kind of high on this reader for a few months now; but, I love having an in-line pop up window for a dictionary, wiki, and translate.

随手记一笔目前 的几款 Windows 软件的问题——

(1) Reader -- 没法处理 inline picture， 如果脚注符号以行内图片的方式插入，则排版会整个乱掉。弃。

(2) -- 设置太复杂。UI混乱。弹出式脚注会完全平铺。基本弃。

(3) Reader -- 屏幕适应性太差，只能适应2K屏的一半儿。弃。

(4) -- 弹出式脚注会完全平铺。英文排版奇怪。但中文排版效果尚可，目前暂且留用。

(5) -- 目前比较满意，排版能力还是不太足。

(6) 的 插件 -- 部分 epub 打开报错。弹出式脚注会完全平铺。

En RIBES hemos empezado a publicar todo en PDF, HTML, EPUB y XML JATS. Algunos resultados interesantes:

- Hasta ahora, hay un total de 3.029 visualizaciones de archivos.
- El 60.38% en PDF
- El 23.74% en HTML
- 15.88% en otros formatos.

Parece que publicar los trabajos en HTML es relevante. Lo del JATS XML va más para indexar en el futuro con bases de datos: es más semántico que de estilo.

Aunque ya lo dijimos, la conversión a HTML y EPUB la hacemos con Pandoc en apenas una orden:

pandoc documento.docx -o documento.html --extract-media=. --standalone -M lang="es" --wrap=none

(la mayoría de trabajos vienen en docx, pero también podría ser en odt, etc.)

y para EPUB:

pandoc documento.html -o documento.epub

Al EPUB le metemos además las fonts Atkinson Hyperlegible, pero la orden base es esa.

El resultado es muy bueno. Aquí un ejemplo de HTML: https://revistas.ucm.es/index.php/RIBE/article/view/98535/4564456570742

I read this article & was disappointed with it, even annoyed by it. In multiple places there was a direct conflation of reading with buying, such that in many other places in it only using the word "read / reading", i suspiciously intuited an implicit conflation as well.

What of we readers who in our larger ethos are anti-capitalist anti-consumerist, who still read & love reading, but who do not purchase commercial books? What of us who are big fans of @gutenberg_org & have extensive libraries on our devices, & so happily devour a rich assortment of classic english, french, russian, merkan, strayan etc novels thereby? We don't purchase, therefore we don't count, right? Our reading pleasure is second-class, right?
