ISSUE
Although LO Writer is capable of producing epub books, the html code seems to
be inefficient, with multiple classes used for the same type of paragraph;
headings changed to paragraphs; and span tags used to indicate italics or
emphasis in text (rather than the appropriate <i></i> or <em></em> tags.
TO DEMONSTRATE
1. Open the attached Writer file. Create an epub.
2. Open the epub with the CALIBRE Editor and inspect the html / css.
Points to note:
1. Headings are translated to paragraph styles. Why not simply translate a
heading into the html equivalent: h1, h2, h3 etc.?
2. The text is littered with unnecessary span tags. Why not simply use <i></i>
and <em></em> tags?
3. There is an empty span style in the style sheet!
4. There are two paragraph styles in the css where only one exists in the
Writer file.
Could the html be simplified?
