I figured it out late last night. Because I have benefited so much from others sharing, I will share what I found in hopes it may help some else.
Aldiko inserts paragraph indents by its very nature. Other eReaders don't. Aldiko has to be told not to indent a paragraph, otherwise it will. You can edit an ePub and insert code to keep it from doing so. My desire, however, was to make sure if I converted that ePub in Calibre again later, I wouldn't lose that coding and have to redo that work again. Calibre removes those inserted codes upon re-conversion.
If you use Word, I found it does not insert specific code addressing no indent without a little trick {even if your sytle is set to flush left, no first line indent.} Set your style to indent first line. Say .25." This will indent your paragraph {I know that is not the goal.}
Follow that up, however, by overriding that paragraph style and selecting that paragraph and choose no indent under the paragraph properties. This inserts specifically the no-indent code which Aldiko looks for.
From Word I export it as web page, filtered and import it into Calibre.
I have tried it all day and it works fine.
