So, I have some ePubs made in Sigil with photos interspersed throughout the chapters. The photos come with captions, all in a <div> tag to keep the photo and caption together.

Most of the chapters display correctly, but I have about three that override any reader settings I might have. For example, I generally my generic font-family settings of "serif" and "sans-serif" will all become Verdana when I select that option. But in these chapters, the body paragraphs will remain serif.

It's definitely something relating to the photos because if I remove some or just one of the pics, that chapter will display correctly. But I'm racking my brains trying to figure out why, with the photos added back in, it goes back to being different and overriding reader settings.

And, of course, the files validate and look fine in any other application. Anyone encounter anything similar? Any ideas?
