On the Pre-Fill I added the Height and Width boxes but when I enter in a number it only allows whole numbers ie. 8 but not 8.5. The boxes on the Detail tab allow decimal numbers.
Yes that is right, unfortunately the option to fill in a decimal didn’t make it way back then.
CLZ Books Web does allow decimals in the pre-fill screen for height and width. Maybe that’s an option for you?

1st: What fields in Collector are not transferable the Web?
2nd: Where is my data stored when using Web?
3rd: How does Web treat eBooks? I have 957 of them in Collector.
4th: I travel and internet access can be iffy over wifi, can I use an android tablet with cell phone access for Web?
1st: What fields in Collector are not transferable the Web?
Characters, Local File Links and User Defined Fields
The rest are all transferred to web. I would suggest to just sync with CLZ Cloud, then try out CLZ Web for yourself to see if you like it.
2nd: Where is my data stored when using Web?
On our servers. Not your computer. But you can of course export your data to txt, csv, pdf or even a big “backup zip” to your local computer.
3rd: How does Web treat eBooks? I have 957 of them in Collector.
They will just sync. File links however (I don’t know if you’ve linked them to local files on your computer) do not.
4th: I travel and internet access can be iffy over wifi, can I use an android tablet with cell phone access for Web?
For Android tablet or phones I would 1000% recommend getting our mobile app CLZ Books. It also syncs with CLZ Cloud, and thus CLZ Web.
A Note if you put in the whole number 85 in the prefill field for height it is entered in a book as 8.5, width acts the same. FIXED
