Hi

I like to format my eBooks in Microsoft Word 2003, then I save them in HTML and for years I have used to create my PRC files Mobipocket Publisher 3.03 (it’s from 2001/2002), and they have been perfect.

Some days ago I installed Mobipocket Reader 6.1 and Creator 4.2.
All the files I create from Word HTML’s have a different (2 times bigger) left margin, then the right one.
I have tested with HTML’s form different Words installed in different computers and I get always the same results.
I have tested the prc files in all my computers and different mobipocket readers (the 4.8 version I was using before and the new one) and its’ always the same.

If I create the same file, in Mobipocket Publisher 3.03, it’s perfect, equal margins!

As someone experienced this situation?

Best regards,
