I completed all of chapters 6 and 7 in firefox, and qupzilla (on this machine) and also looked at 7.3.3.2 on my netbook with firefox (1024x600 screen). I did make a few more pngs, but in view of the developments re mobile usage this investigation has become - "overtaken by events". I would however like to note the following: 1. firefox with 18/14 DejaVu : 1.1 table 6.1 (6.69.2 Man-DB) looks great - I don't think we have any other tables. 1.2 in 7.3 Overview of Device and Module Handling - At 7.3.3.2 the heading "A kernel module is not loaded automatically, and Udev is not intended to load it" overflows (i.e. 'it' is on a second line. On the current stylesheet there is no problem because the full width is used. 2.Curiously, on my netbook that line in 7.3.3.2 also fits on one line with the new stylesheet (sans-serif 16). 3. qupzilla with Liberation Sans 15 and Liberation Mono 13 The main text is scrollable to the side, even if I maximize the index page. Also, the lines of the heading on the index which are below the penguin can leak about 1 character position into the navigation column (that is, a small background-blue rectangle appears there). But if I make the window *marginally* smaller than what it was, scrolling the index sideways no longer bleeds like that. The commands in 6.9.2.2 only take part of the available space. 4. At this point in qupzilla I changed to 16/16 pt with the same fonts because the text was a bit hard to read (I don't normally read the books in qupzilla). 4.1 If I maximize, I can still scroll sizeways, text then appears below the navigation column. At the reduced normal window size I cannot scroll sideways and do not need to. 4.2 After that, it is generally ok, but I eventually noticed the wide black edge on the 'Contents' boxes and wondered 'Why ?'. 4.3 For the record, the text of 7.3.3.2 fits well within one line in this combination, so it is very much affected by the font choice and hte font size. ĸen -- This one goes up to eleven: but only on a clear day, with the wind in the right direction. -- http://lists.linuxfromscratch.org/listinfo/blfs-dev FAQ: http://www.linuxfromscratch.org/blfs/faq.html Unsubscribe: See the above information page
