En poques paraules

Un còmic de dues pàgines desat com a PDF d’impremta i com a llibres electrònics: un que conserva les pàgines i deixa anar de vinyeta en vinyeta, un altre per a Kindle i un altre amb els diàlegs com a text.

Què compondràs

El primer capítol de La llum de Porthcove: una portada i dues pàgines de còmic, maquetades una vegada i exportades de quatre maneres. El PDF és per a impremta. L’EPUB de maqueta fixa conserva les pàgines impreses i porta navegació per regions, així que un lector electrònic pot mostrar el llibre vinyeta a vinyeta, saltant de l’arribada al far a la ràdio i després a la Maya. Un segon EPUB fix hi afegeix Kindle Panel View; l’adaptable compon cada vinyeta com la seva imatge retallada seguida dels seus diàlegs. La pàgina llista cada fitxer tal com l’obrirà un lector, amb l’enllaç de baixada, en sis idiomes.

// The fixed layout keeps every printed page and writes regions.xhtml (EPUB Region-Based
// Navigation): one panel region per panel in reading order, its balloons nested in it.
// kindlePanelView adds Kindle's tap-to-magnify targets; the reflowable book sets each panel
// as its cropped picture followed by its lines as text.
const book = {
  metadata: { title: doc.metadata.title, creators: [doc.metadata.author], language: config().locale,

Elaboració

#1 · Exporta el mateix document com a EPUB

El codi és la resposta curta de dalt. renderToEpub rep els documents que imprimeix renderToPdf, de manera que les pàgines de l’EPUB són les del PDF (sortida dels còmics). Amb layout: 'fixed' i pàgines de còmic al llibre, escriu també regions.xhtml: una regió panel per vinyeta en ordre de lectura, cadascuna un rectangle en percentatge de la seva pàgina, amb les bafarades, cartel·les i onomatopeies com a regions a dins. El sentit de pas de pàgina segueix el sentit de lectura del còmic, així que les edicions japonesa i àrab passen de dreta a esquerra. kindlePanelView: true hi afegeix una zona tàctil per vinyeta i una còpia ampliada, amb les metadades que espera Kindle. La versió adaptable no té pàgines per conservar: cada vinyeta és la seva imatge, retallada com a la pàgina, i després els seus diàlegs, «Maya: Biscuit! I l’avi?», amb els noms de comics.cast.

Vinyeta 1 de la pàgina 2: a la lectura guiada, la primera regió, amb la cartel·la i la bafarada de la Maya a dins.

#2 · Incrusta les lletres que fan servir les pàgines

// For each weight and style the lettering asks for, the file loadComicFonts chose (the
// nearest one Fontsource ships), only the slices whose characters the book sets. A file that
// serves several weights is embedded once, with a weight range ('400 700').
const inRange = (range, cp) => range.split(',').some((part) => {
  const [lo, hi = lo] = part.trim().slice(2).split('-');
  return cp >= parseInt(lo, 16) && cp <= parseInt(hi, 16);
});
async function epubFonts(families, text) {
  const cps = [...new Set(text)].map((ch) => ch.codePointAt(0));
  const byFile = new Map(); // url → the face it serves
  for (const family of families) {
    const meta = await fontsourceMeta(family);
    const asks = [[400, 'normal'], [700, 'normal'], [400, 'italic'], [700, 'italic']];
    for (const [weight, style] of asks) {
      const w = meta.weights.reduce((a, b) => (Math.abs(b - weight) < Math.abs(a - weight) ? b : a),
        400);
      const s = style === 'italic' && meta.styles.includes('italic') ? 'italic' : 'normal';
      for (const { url, range } of await comicFaceFiles(family, w, s, meta, text)) {
        if (range && !cps.some((cp) => inRange(range, cp))) continue;
        const face = byFile.get(url) ?? { family, style: s, weights: new Set(), range };
        face.weights.add(weight);
        byFile.set(url, face);
      }
    }
  }
  return Promise.all([...byFile].map(async ([url, { family, style, weights, range }]) => ({
    family, style, format: 'woff2', unicodeRange: range,
    weight: weights.size > 1 ? `${Math.min(...weights)} ${Math.max(...weights)}` : [...weights][0],
    bytes: new Uint8Array(await (await fetch(url)).arrayBuffer()) })));
}

Un EPUB de maqueta fixa dibuixa el text amb les lletres que porta a dins, i una lletra que falta se substitueix per la del lector. La retolació demana rodona, negreta i cursiva; les lletres de còmic en porten menys, així que cada petició rep el fitxer que va triar loadComicFonts, i un fitxer que serveix als dos pesos hi entra una sola vegada amb el rang '400 700'. Les lletres japoneses i xineses només porten els trossos amb els caràcters de la seva edició, cosa que deixa el llibre japonès en 1,4 MB.

    panels.length ? steps : el('p', '', 'No region navigation: the panels are text.'), link);
  shelf.append(card);
}
document.getElementById('pages').before(shelf);

readEpub obre els bytes com ho faria un lector: maqueta, sentit de pas, espina. La llista de cada targeta és la mateixa lectura guiada, llegida de regions.xhtml: cinc vinyetes i les seves regions de text, en l’ordre en què el lector les recorre. Els tres fitxers passen EPUBCheck 5.4 sense errors ni avisos en anglès, japonès i àrab.
