KDEnlive manual invalid epub format

I have updated the manual in epub and I notice 2 errors: 1) It truncates the lines so a lot of information is lost 2) the size cannot be correct, the previous one weighed more than 600 MB and the one I downloaded today does not even reach 38 MB.
Thank you for your contribution, since I use the application periodically I am making a donation.

No, I believe that bit really is correct, thanks to a lot of work by @Eugen_Mohr on optimising the build. There may still be some issues with the automated builds on the build farm, or something else though, so pointers to exactly where in the doc you see any problems (ed: and what reader you are using to view it) would definitely be helpful and welcome.

Thank you for the feedback.

In EPUB I have done 4 things:

1. Fix most of the errors by checking with “EPUBcheck ”

2. Enable a table of content on the left side for better navigation

3. Specify the maximum width of images. This brought down the EPUB size from 650MB to 37MB. Now the EPUB get loaded much faster.

4. Enable “alabaster” theme that some of the features are shown correctly.

Point 4 is most probably the root cause for your issue 1). Can you show me an example of these truncated lines?

Grateful for your interest, How send format file PDF?. By the way, my viewer is Sumatra.exe

The manual reads correctly in the calibre.exe reader.

Calibre.exe is not very friendly for reading, which reader do you recommend for reading the manual?

Thank you.

Thank you for the feedback. Yes, I tested the EPUB with Calibre but as you said it’s not the preferable viewer.
I have checked about the PDF format but I have not found out how to create the PDF properly as it will have about 1200 pages. The page brakes are horrible.

I just tested the EPUB with different viewers on my mobile. I’ll check Sumatra too.
I see that there are some problems showing the EPUB properly. I have to investigate further.

Thank you for your response. I am eagerly awaiting the result of the investigation.

And which epub reader would be recommended for reading the Kdenlive manual?
