Path to CSS

PlainBobMax · 03-08-2010, 09:47 PM

In Calibre's "extra css" field when converting to epub, the tooltip says that you can enter the path to a css file. How exactly is this done? Is it as simple as typing "Data/styles.css?" or is there more to the code: commands, tags, slashes, quotes etc.? My reader is a PRS-600

I'm sorry if this has been addressed elsewhere. I searched for: path to css stylesheet sony -- and couldn't find what I'm looking for.

You enter the path to a css file on your computer. On a windows computer, this will be something like "C:\Documents\my.css"

You can probably use a shorter path if you put it in the right place, but a full path to the file is much safer.

So, I cannot enter a path to a CSS file that is on my Sony reader?

---------------

Edit:
Ok, I get it. I'm linking to a css file on the computer, which then appends the info into the epub. I thought it was a way to link to a css file saved on the reader. That's why I could not figure out how to format the path. This makes sense.

Thanks!
