epub to mobi - keep non proportional font ?
working with guitar / bass tab which is written for non proportional fonts [Non-proportional fonts, also known as monospaced fonts, assign exactly the same amount of horizontal space to each character. Monospaced fonts are ideal for creating tables of information where columns of characters must be aligned. Text created with non-proportional fonts often look as though they were produced on a typewriter. Two commonly-used non-proportional fonts are Courier and Monaco on the Macintosh and Courier New and FixedSys on Windows.]
looks good in epub:
note that epub source has courier new font explicitly set
span.sgc-1 {font-family: 'Courier New'; font-size: 11px;}
- in other fonts such as default below, the display will look wrong
intro [Pick up]
G|-----| |-------|
D|-----| X15 |-------|
A|-----| |-------|
E|-----| |-0-1-2-|
but looks good in calibre epuib viewer.
when I convert epuib to mobi & re-view, the mobi version is no longer using a proportional font so the output looks awful for Kindle.
HOw can I force mobi to use non proportional font ?
