I would love to share my CSS when I'm done. I am not sold on Gentium either, but at the moment it is the best choice I came up with from the font list.
Say... any chance I can see the html/css that we're sending to be PDFed? It would help if I could bug test that way.

Mushin, in answer to your question 6 weeks ago:
Say... any chance I can see the html/css that we're sending to be PDFed?
go to http://objavi.flossmanuals.net/tmp/?C=M;O=D
And choose a subdirectory that looks interesting, e.g:
http://objavi.flossmanuals.net/tmp/collaborativefutures-en-2010.08.18-18.58.06.pdfC34iFm/
body.html gets turned into the pdf.
raw.html is body.html before a bit of processing.
preamble.html is the contents, etc
tail.html is the back page.
BTW, I have merged your image max-width CSS into the default. It solves problems on lots of books.

Mushon, do you want to take this on?
The description refers to stopping excessively wide images from changing the shape of the whole PDF, but there's a whole lot of other things that could be done.
(I liked what you did with Collaborative Futures, though I don't know if Adam would like Gentium in the general case).
