tammycravit Posted May 9, 2012 Report Share Posted May 9, 2012 I understand (and appreciate) that Storyist can save intermediate files when it exports a manuscript to either Kindle or ePub. This is a very useful feature for customizing. However, I very often export my eBooks multiple times in the course of creating them — I may make several exports as I edit, for example. Also, if I find typos after publication, I'll fix them and release new eBook files. Re-integrating my modified CSS currently requires steps like the following: Export a new eBook from Storyist, checking "Save intermediate files" Copy the CSS file I modified (and saved elsewhere) the first time back to the intermediate files folder. Re-run Kindlegen. Run Calibre's ebook-convert command to turn the .mobi into a .epub (this is my preferred workflow). It would be really nice if I could add the modified CSS files back to my Storyist file and tell Storyist that it should use those CSS files instead of generating its own. Ideally, I could specify the CSS file in the same place where I specify the cover image. Then I would only have to make my CSS changes once, and could preserve them across re-generations of the eBook. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
redvex Posted February 15, 2014 Report Share Posted February 15, 2014 would be great if storyist could handle custom stylesheets (as for example Ulysses III do) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
