I am creating an ebook from a book I made using 3 folders and approximately 30 files. Because each chapter is a separate file, you have to double-click in the TOC of the ebook to drill down to the page. The book has lots of cross references, etc. and seems difficult to combine into one file now, though I am willing if that it best way. Also, in the Responsive html 5, I notice that on my phone, I cannot "swipe" from page to page like is possible in some ebooks. Thank you for any help with these questions.

    ebooks are usually formatted as ePUBs, not HTML5 Responsive output (see Matt R. Sullivan's adventures in creating his ePUB book here - http://www.techcommtools.com/ebooks-with-fm-rh/ ​)

    Jeff, Thank you for that. Very productive. I have created the ePub and am now trying to epubcheck Path and am trying to browse for the path, seems like a .jar file, but I cannot find that.  There does not seem to be .jar file in my ePub output. Can you help me with this? Thanks for your time.
