@Idolse, I'm confused with your reply. Unless I've totally got the wrong end of the stick, kidblue seemed to confirm that the MOBI I attached, read OK on his Kindle and the HTML I attached both converted OK to MOBI and the MOBI read OK on his Kindle. His only problem is within his OS (OS X) where manually copying the text from the PDF and pasting into a text file didn't retain the leading spaces (all spaces?) correctly. I do not understand this problem because on Windows it just works with no problem.
