This will describe how to format the XHTML/CSS2 in the ePub for best results with KindleGen.
Thank you pdurrant for the link to the .pdf! That's a read I was looking for, it'll help me to build proper EPUB files.

What triggered my initial question were repeated failed attempts to produce functioning MOBI files, but I think I'm now getting to the point to restrain the EPUB sufficiently.
