      this worries me:

       

      I quote from the help about social sharing:

       

      "If the customer shared the article from a 2048x1536 folio, the article link is not available for web viewing on the desktop"

       

      "Articles with PDF image format do not display properly in many instances, depending on the browser and user settings. For the best web viewer experience, create 1024x768 articles with JPG or PNG image format."

      First, you need us to create 2048 PDF folios because the xml based folio format cannot handle mutiple instances of the same image (aka responsive images), and then, one release later, you ask designers and publishers to keep working on 1024 folio in static PNG format.

       

      And in a few months, when web viewing is getting better, you then tell people to create PDF or 2048 folios again.

       

      How is this ever gonna adapt to

      A) the wishes and needs of a real publisher (they seem to stay on older versions)

      2) produce great looking content through all channels?

       

      Sad rant (and without breakfast, so please excuse my harshness)
