EPUB -> MOBI: Can't style HR element?
Hi guys,

I'm trying to style the HR element in mobi but I don't seem to have any luck. The HR element is styled properly in the original epub ( margin-top: 3em; margin-bottom: 3em; width: 50%; ) but it does not seem to convert to mobi. I've tried to force it using a custom css (that was used for the original epub) but no luck either.

I'm using ebook-convert from the command line.

Code:
C:\test>ebook-convert Test.epub Test.mobi --mobi-toc-at-start --extra-css="epub.css"

Code:
1% Converting input to HTML...

Thanks, Kovid. Switching to azw3 fixed it.

I guess this is a limitation of the mobi format then. It really is too bad. I use Amazon's Send to Kindle feature extensively to sideload books and it doesn't support azw3.

Thanks again for the quick reply!

I believe send to kindle recently started supporting azw3, at least some people have reported that it has, though I haven't tried it myself.

Just tried with both the Sent to Kindle email and the app client.
Nope, azw3 is still a no go. Oh well.
