HTML Templates for EPUB/MOBI formats are different from those used in CHM/WebHelp/QtHelp/JavaHelp. Though they too have <templatename.html> and <templatename.css> files, their logical structure is different:
- Default HTML file defines how a book page looks like.
- There are 2 additional HTML files: front.html and toc.html, the first for "front page" with title, author and etc and the second is for the table of contents.
- Default CSS file is for all 3 template HTML files.
