Sigil seems to be a lot smarter that the epub readers that I can find, esp. ADE.
The CSS below was an experiment and Sigil has no problems displaying it as expected (i.e. correctly), but ADE seems to ignore the :first-line and :first-letter selectors. ADE also seems to be a little flaky with embedded fonts also.
Using Calibre to convert to Kindle AZW3 will show correctly in the Kindle Previewer (haven't actually tried my touch yet)
Code:
p {
text-indent: 0;
text-align: left;
font-size: 1em;
margin-top:0;
margin-bottom: 1em;
font-size: 1em;
font-weight: normal;
font-style: normal;
font-family:serif;
}
p:first-line {
font-size: small;
font-style: italic;
text-decoration: underline;
font-variant:small-caps;
font-family:sans-serif;
}
p:first-letter {
font-size: 1.75em;
font-weight: bold;
font-style: normal;
font-family:sans-serif;
}
(Yes, I know it's ugly .. it was just an experiment)
So ... is there a more 'accurate' epub viewer for Windows?
