It's possible that my first two specimens were defective, but two tries was enough for me.
Sounds like your epubs were seriously messed up. Mantano doesn't do that! I always recommend running a epub through Calibre and remove the fonts and colors using the boxes in Look and Feel. Too many people have no clue how to make a proper epub and they are all over the net. I am always fixing someone else's mess.

Reason it looks okay on the Fire is Calibre fixed it. Do a epub to epub conversion next time and remember to check those boxes!
