true, but an epub source which calibre has converted to Mobi should appear just like the source, in calibre viewer unless there is strange CSS code in that book which does not convert/reconvert correctly.

I have converted lots of epub to mobi with calibre & have viewed the "mobi" with calibre viewer Ok - [even though I'm not really viewing "mobi" when I do that, as you have already explained. ] In fact, a while back we got into tweaking backgound colours n stuff for calibre viewer to match Kindle for PC

I then got very similar viewing experience with K for PC & the C viewer side by side on screen.

I think we need to know if ithis "bug" happens for more than 1 book & we need to see some sample of html & CSS for a page that is getting mangled.
