Stanza Desktop - book info/format help

I'm using Stanza to put documents onto my ipod touch as well. This is what it looks like when I add it by "New From Clipboard", using the first question in the FAQs (The quotation marks I added).

"Unknown
by Unknown
What sort of con­tent can I read with Stan­za?

Any­thing! How­ev­er, Stan­za is es­pe­cial­ly de­signed for read­ing large bod­ies of text where for­mat­ting is not an in­te­gral part of the read­ing ex­pe­ri­ence. It is more ap­pro­pri­ate for read­ing nov­els, sto­ries, es­says, and news ar­ti­cles. Graph­ics-​heavy con­tent like text­books and mul­ti­me­dia web sites will be dif­fi­cult to read us­ing Stan­za."

When I add a title and author, it ends up looking like this:

"Title
by Author
Ti­tle

Ti­tle

Ti­tle

Is there a problem with how I'm entering? Is there anyway that I could have no repeating titles? (It's not very important, but can be distracting)

thanks in advance!

It really says the word

It really says the word "Title" and "Author"? Or does it say the actual title and author, which in your case look like "Unknown"? Let me know.

Also, when you do "New From Clipboard", what application are you copying from? Thanks!

Kohina, try opening the file

Kohina, try opening the file with stanza desktop, then use the built in converter to save a new copy as a "open Ereader" format. then try transfering.

read my post titled "skydrive alternative " and it goes into more detail
