Comments.Text: The whole book is in Hebrew. The book is allready printed, but the publisher is interested in publishing an ebook as well. Could a fixed layout epub be a good solution? Many thanks!

Comments.Text: Thanks :) The publisher would like to upload the ebook to Amazon Kindle and to its own website. I know I have to convert the Epub to Mobi for Kindle, as to the website, I thought to reccomend a specific reader to the user which I know will support the file. Would that work? As to the Layout issues, I will post snippets and screenshots later. I made a test today and found out that layout issues I had with reflowable epub dissapeared when converting to fixed layout..
