    If anyone else has this problem, perhaps this will help. My smart guides also mysteriously disappeared recently, and after seeing this post, I was thinking I'd have to reset my preferences, as they were all enabled in my preferences just like Furry said. BUT in looking around the menus, I found that View>Grids & Guides>Smart Guides was not checked. I have no idea how this got unchecked, but I re-checked that option and viola! Problem solved, smart guides back.

    How do these things happen? I don't recall ever having a reason to uncheck this option.

    I am creating an ebook for Kindle (including the iPad app) that is having similar issues, though usually the majority of the image is on the first page. I am wondering about adding height=”100%” in the <img> tags. But for images that are taller than they are wide and have text to read, this makes them a bit small.

    I only am able to preview in the Kindle Previewer on my PC so far. My client has an iPad and is going to give me more specific feedback on this. I'm still pretty new at ebooks, but if I discover anything, I will share. :)

    Thanks, Laras. I have been doing some of that editing post-export. With so many images, it's a little time-consuming, but so far it seems to be working ok.

    I haven't been able to find an answer to this yet from anyone, nor anywhere else on the web. I did some experimenting, and it seems that InDesign does resize images to how they are scaled in the document when they're exported to epub. So, I enlarged nearly all of them to the width of the page (600px), figuring I could resize later in the html or the image file itself, if needed. It did make the epub file size very large though, about 27MB. I had image quality set to “Maximum” in the export options too.

    If anyone has any thoughts or experience to share on this, I'd appreciate it. :)
