Japanese and E-book readers: A guide

#44
Thanks for recommending Sigil, it's nice to have things organized.

However, I'm still unable to get it to work. I've tried both of the methods suggested and it still only shows boxes (the boxes are displaying in the correct layout though, so it's still just that the fonts aren't being used).

EDIT1: removed excess; added update

So I gave up on using ePubs and decided to use PDFs created by 青P, since they actually show up. Now I just need to figure out how to make it incorporate the images. If anyone knows what it's looking for when it goes to grab images (since it says it does in the manual), please tell me.

EDIT2: I guess I really should RTFM before I ask questions.
For anyone who doesn't bother too do so either, you have to denote images with
<img src= "image/source/path.img">
It only took me a few hours to check the 'tag' section of the manual to see if it said anything important...

Now that I've figured that out, 青P will be almost as convenient as AozoraEpub3, with the only extra step being some 'find and replace'.
Unless some other problem comes up.

EDIT3:
I give up for now, I think. While the PDF created was fine on my computer, when displayed on my Nook, it doesn't display the images and the text, while vertical, is displayed as if the Y-axis was the X-axis (so, as if this model were 1200x785 instead of the other way around), while the program's water marks are aligned correctly, but in the wrong places. Also, the furigana doesn't display properly.
I don't think I want vertical text this badly at the moment. Maybe I'll come back to it in the future.
