Yes, if I understand theducks correctly, the page style sheet came after I put it into Calibre. I do that because it is just the way I learned to load it onto my eReader and to include the jacket metadata info etc. However, it is clear from your explanation, Hitch, that adding it through Calibre does a lot MORE "behind the scnes" than just that - things that I don't understand yet. But I'm learning!
I guess I went through this back-a$$wards - learning the hard way first and then trying to do the baby steps!
If this helps, the page_styles.CSS is this:
@page {
margin-bottom: 5pt;
margin-top: 5pt
}
@font-face {
src: url(../Fonts/Droid-Serif.ttf);
panose-1: 2 2 6 0 6 5 0 2 2 0;
font-family: "Droid Serif"
}
@font-face {
src: url(../Fonts/Droid-Serif-Italic.ttf);
panose-1: 2 2 6 0 6 5 0 9 2 0;
font-family: "Droid Serif";
font-style: italic
}
@font-face {
src: url(../Fonts/Droid-Serif-Bold.ttf);
panose-1: 2 2 8 0 6 5 0 2 2 0;
font-family: "Droid Serif";
font-weight: bold
}
@font-face {
src: url(../Fonts/Droid-Serif-Bold-Italic.ttf);
panose-1: 2 2 8 0 6 5 0 9 2 0;
font-family: "Droid Serif";
font-weight: bold;
font-style: italic
}
But I will try your suggestion on adding the font-family to the p line. That seems to be a common sense first step in trying to fix the solution. I will let you know how it goes! Thanks so much to everyone for all your input!
