Ligature problem in quotes

This issue should be resolved after the next software update.

I noticed some problems with ligatures in the PDF version of the book Mathematics. On page 38 there are two quotes (that are a part of the article Mathematical beauty) that contain words "first" and "find". In both words "fi" is rendered as a square. This could be a font issue. --Marozols (talk) 23:31, 28 July 2009 (UTC)

Thanks for spotting that one. The fix will be live soon. Volker.haas (talk) 09:19, 4 August 2009 (UTC)

Non-printing images

This issue should be resolved after the next software update.

I really like this facility. One problem I have encountered with the article Charles Hamilton (writer) is that, in book fromat, the first image appears but the second and third images do not. I have tried changing a few things but nothing has helped. Can someone look at this? Thanks --John Price (talk) 06:40, 1 August 2009 (UTC)

This issue has been fixed. The software will be updated in the next few days. Volker.haas (talk) 08:54, 4 August 2009 (UTC)

Images and tables

This issue should be resolved after the next software update.

In instances where images appear alongside tables, many times only the images appear in the PDF rather than the table. Example articles include any of the single-position articles in the Silver Slugger Award and Gold Glove Award series (see List of Gold Glove Award winners at catcher or List of Silver Slugger Award winners at second base for specific examples).

Error when no title is entered

The book rendering process stays at 1% when no book title is entered before rendering. --Beao (talk) 14:29, 11 August 2009 (UTC)

Printing stops with certain infoboxes

This issue should be resolved after the next software update.

Couldn't find this as a bug anywhere, but, for example, on the article for Arizona State University, the PDF version seems to malfunction when a certain infobox was added (Infobox US university ranking). The edit just prior to adding the infobox [1] displays as PDF just fine; however, the version right after the infobox was added [2] is cut off at the "Reputation and Rankings" section. -Nick^talk 22:10, 15 August 2009 (UTC)

Thanks for spotting this bug. See the ticket above for details. -- Volker.haas (talk) 13:50, 17 August 2009 (UTC)

t and cs

I added a bit about these, because I was about to print my essay, but think that it may be illegal, or otherwise prohibited. Thought the extra info was useful :-) Privatemusings (talk) 00:00, 7 August 2009 (UTC)
