Second edit: THIS IS SOLVED NOW, PLEASE DISREGARD. It turns out that it was a simple table problem, not related to calibre. Many thanks to Jellby!

Hi, I think/ hope my problem is simpler but this thread has the appropriate title: I am using a resource for online books, ultimate aim being to read them on Kindle.
Each chapter of a book is a separate webpage; so I download them all and produce an epub out of them in Sigil.
There are linked footnotes at the end of each chapter ("formerly" webpage) and I could not find any way to have them properly linked with the main text using the .mobi format.

Thus: go for azw3 and the links work... Fine but the problem is that this time the margins become fixed -- thus e.g. the right half of the lines become invisible on Kindle/ or Kindle apps, no reflow at all... None of the different settings I used in calibre (remove fake margins/ ignore margins etc...) enabled me to solve this issue. I suspect that this issue is pretty simple for someone more skillful in using calibre or even Sigil, yet I spent many many hours to solve it to no avail. (The problem applies to every epub created with the html files, not just to one particular book); I would be grateful for any help indeed!

Edit on the next day: This might be fixed in the epub itself it seems; so I dared to open a new thread and pasted the css content there
