Choose a tag to compare

@ciscoriordan ciscoriordan released this 15 Apr 20:18

Small follow-up to v1.2.1. Recompresses the internal Kindle cover (images/cover.jpg) from 175 KB down to 94 KB (1000x1600, ImageMagick quality 85) so the dictionary now passes the 127 KB cover image ceiling in the Kindle Publishing Guidelines (KPG section 10.4.2, kindling rule R10.4.2a). The generated OPF now validates with 0 errors and 0 warnings.

All content, headwords, inflections, and data sources are unchanged from v1.2.1. Upgrading is cosmetic: slightly smaller MOBI download, one fewer build-time warning.

What changed vs. v1.2.1

  • Cover image recompressed to ~94 KB (was ~175 KB), now under the KPG 10.4.2 ceiling
  • Added scripts/compress_cover.sh, an idempotent ImageMagick regenerator that reads the hires marketing cover and writes images/cover.jpg
