@HongDa ?

Above is Adobe, but I see the same in Sumatra.

There are also issues with the AN pdf toc which should be obvious if you look. Numbered-Discourses-sujato-2025-01-20

EDIT: DN and MN have same problem.

To be clear: The issue is with the bookmark/navigation table of contents, not (it seems) the actual hard toc in the book itself.

I’ll mention again it would be great if tests could be written to check these before they go live.

Bhante @sujato, I think you are involved with these now for the Pirivena project.

That’s strange. I don’t see any similar issue with DN or MN. Although, the copy that I have is one week earlier than what Bhante is using.

Thanks @WayChuang @Snowbird

The publication should be regenerated in the next two days. Let’s see if the problem still exists.

It looks like the latest publication (2025-01-28) still has similar issue.

I also noticed that editions-main file size is 612MB instead of 150MB displayed on the web. I’m not sure where the majority of the bloat came from, but there seems to be duplicates here and there.

Same checksum, same content packed twice.

The hardcover edition of MN has to 3 sets of zip files dated differently, that of 28th, 27th and 25th of January.

What’s the difference between hardcover edition and paperback edition? Both of them use 5.8 x 8.7 inch.

@HongDa any idea what is going on?

SN’s directory structure is different from others, I’m trying to figure out how to fix it.

We recently added a hardcover edition, which increased the zip file size.

I think the duplicates can be found in the paperback folder too, while the hardcover folder has multiple copies of different dates.

Welcome back. CNY must be very exhausting. :stuck_out_tongue_closed_eyes:
