does not seem to always work, or something else is overriding.
some books are fine - but the case below is not:
I add
p { text-indent: 1em}
to extra css
run epub to mobi ( on a book with no indents)
view mobi in calibre viewer - still no indents
the book in question has code such as
<p class="calibre2">We did....
nothing complex
there is however an explicit text-indent 0 in the calibre 2 style for that book - but I though the whole idea of extra CSS was that it overrides what is in stylesheet...
I reckon ( albeit based on a sample of 1) that the extra CSS override is fine EXCEPT where I have previously forced a zero indent by editing the specific calibre style used for p tags, in the book's epub stylesheet.css.
I can test by removing that 1 line from the css stylesheet.... yep the extra css override works now.
so have a found a feature, or a bug, here ?
I'll try a related test. put the explicit text-indent: 0 back into my epub, convert to mobi but with remove blank lines ticked & indent set to 1 in conversion options...
well that does exactly what it says on the tin. so the issue is only with extra CSS
