A Polish letters in ePUBach
When the reader even before the purchase of books I started playing with EPUB format, the world seemed to be easy and enjoyable. I thought that we are entering the land HTML, CSSA, and recognized the "engines" of web browsers. As a consequence, I thought to myself that any sensible design that works on web pages will work and here.
I thought to myself here modern standards such as SVG and MathML for writing mathematical formulas. I enjoyed the free tools to create ePUBów (caliber, Sigil, eCub) and with some horror I looked at the combine under the name SISU.
Later I found add-ons to allow you to export OpenOffice.org documents in the ePub format.
All created ePUBy looked very well in the browsers (FBReader, Calibre, or EPUBReaderze Sigil). Purchase reader (Oyo) revised my understanding of HTML standards and fonts. I could, of course, complaining about starbucks (Oyo supplier) that sell anything, but the closer contact with Adobe Digital Editions only deepened the frustration: it seemed to me quite impossible for the combine has released such a challah ...
finally understand why e-books prepared by Virtualo or contain Legimi included fonts: you can not otherwise be . They write about it (not only Poles) at various forums.
In this context, I no longer even enjoy the fact that Virtualo to their books using a font Iwona: completely Polish product, formed (in principle) in the days before computer and digitized by Janusz Marian Nowacki for the TeX community.
Yes precisely, to 1975 Ms Budyta created under the supervision of Roman Tomaszewski Courier font for the composition of the slug, hence the very characteristic shape of the letters containing a "trap varnish." Font did not went into production because of the invasion of new composition techniques ... After many years has been digitalized by Janusz M. Nowacki, and was inspired to create a font Iwona. Here's an example

Lump Under Skin Ribs Man
O standards (and especially the Polish literkach)
To tell the truth is I was hoping that I never, ever, I'll have to think about it, or speak. Because it was a real problem after "connecting to the internet." The world stood before us a hole, but could not use the Polish letters (except "L" and maybe "ó").
was not even any fonts (not to mention good). There were no standards of their coding. When you need a man appeared who knows how to earn some extra "tails," he finished font, something with him, and the crash " place insert Polish letters.
With Łukasiewiczowi virtually all fonts contain the letters L and L, and by coincidence was also the letter O (acute accent oz.) Apparently not the same as "u hatched" (surely you should write "about dashed"), but let's leave this problem.
Worse, each of the systems (PC / DOS, PC / Windows, Apple Unix / Linux) used a different way of coding Polish letters.
was, it's been - it seems that it has effectively, if, under any Linux, you can use unicode. Since that time, was a huge amount of outstanding commercial free fonts and computer-equipped, not only in the "Polish letters, but also in many other postage stamps.
And suddenly, it appears that there is a product (free, but on the commercial market) that's about the Polish letters not know! I mean a product Adobe Digital Editions. What is more DRM system provided by Adobe is the basis for the security of e-books offered by the Polish publishers (except Kolporter).
Adobe wants to be seen as the leader of digital publications ... Another thing that I like to look at their website to Digital Publishing is not the first place, in the first place the financial services ...

Bubble Feeling After Gallbladder Surgery
Christmas holidays
Because what a feast without a purchase. How and shopping, of course, a whole bunch of people in the shops, because everyone wants to buy something cool. Stupid to buy canned cans, I had to stand in long penis like Jonah Falcon!
The best part is that there are plenty of free cash register!
Well, damn, I understand the stupid food where Mrs. Krystal has one cash register, but the type of stores Lidl, Tesco? Is there a problem with this approach so graciously to the position, and handle customers?
But noo, well, what! So what that is 8 positions, after all, two are enough, and the rest of the staff may be referred to as opierdala!
not forget when in a hurry like bloody hell, I'm standing in just such a cool milusiej queue, queue and forward such a beautiful dialogue:
June. I go over and knock that guy! Pre-Christmas shopping, everyone is in a hurry, and here a debil.
probably remember those days when you bought a carp, killed him and somehow it not be said out loud, is not it? Well, the natural thing. And now kurna not! Save carp, help karpiom, wpierdalajcie list for the holidays (preferably a tablecloth from under the hay)
people loved No mercy! Every day animals are killed in piiip and somehow it does not bother anyone. No mention is made about the fact that half goes live pig in a slaughterhouse on the tape, no? But just dowalili to carp!
Following this reasoning, consider walking the park, because there full of insects and ant zdepnąć easy! That not to mention,, pacnięciu "newspaper flies on the windscreen. I highly respect people who do not eat meat, really great respect. But I hate when someone dictates to me what you think! How do I go to buy meat pork, then I luzik. But if I go to buy carp, I am regarded as a torturer, a murderer and commonplace carnivore.
third Atheists and holidays
Hem. Quite a controversial issue, is not it? Well, but fuck it.
I mean Christmas is celebrated by atheists. So people who do not believe in God. They do not believe in Jesus too. And celebrate. So celebrate the birth of Jesus in which we do not believe me?
So yes, of course, comes just a clown who writes a comment that celebrated the holidays without a sacred element, it is the feast of Christmas trees, gifts, etc.
Well, that is ...
Christmas is for atheists, which sometimes can be a gift, completely forgetting the most important, right?
Fuck what is holy, let us forget about the presents and let's enjoy z. .. foo.
Following this line of thought, then you can celebrate Mother's Day Valentine's Day. Never mind the fact that after the feast the mother, it's important that the feast.
Imagine that you have a birthday. They come to you, friends, relatives - generally the guests. Issue was out the door and they play at best. The same situation is Christmas Eve.
It's like some Catholics celebrated Buddhist celebration. When I hear about this thing is my blood poured.
This is a call not only to atheists, but also to people who have a little forgotten. Remember what the holidays really are - what we celebrate ;-)
Hi everybody!
Excuse that so long there was no alert, but horribly patched by the feasts was. You know, Christmas is a lovely time if not for ...
Exactly if not for some annoying issues like madafaka! Listen:
first Shopping
Because what a feast without a purchase. How and shopping, of course, a whole bunch of people in the shops, because everyone wants to buy something cool. Stupid to buy canned cans, I had to stand in long penis like Jonah Falcon!

not forget when in a hurry like bloody hell, I'm standing in just such a cool milusiej queue, queue and forward such a beautiful dialogue:
-That you give me szyneczki
(no grandmother packed in bag, coagulate)
-NO!
-NO!
-What?
Please -sear me with no bag!
?
-I will not pay for the bag!
I wear a chicken ... June. I go over and knock that guy! Pre-Christmas shopping, everyone is in a hurry, and here a debil.
second Karp

Christmas would have been perfect if not for those 3 annoying issues. But I hope that people grow wiser. I know that long after the holidays, and so you do not intend to make your wishes, simply throw old Polish:
Same to you.
