editing preview page?
HTML hurts my eyes! It doesn't seem like we can edit the preview, can we?
Thanks!

What exactly do you want the change? Background colour, fonts, something else?

I did an embedded index and it looks a little hellish (some entries out of order etc. Apparently run of the mill problems that happen when you do embedded indexing). So I'm literally having to rearrange the text in that section of the book.

Thanks!

If the changes are cosmetic (e.g. layout, typography) try Sigil's WYSIWYG editor for EPUB - PageEdit.

Did you find the doco - PageEdit User Guide - Sigil-Ebook

If you need any help, ask in the Sigil forum.
