Jackie:
I've started a thread on kobo forum as that's a better place to continue discussion
please have a look there & help me out.
the one test book referred to above had an extra div wrap around the story text with a generic font-family:serif; setting. I made that an explicit
font-family: "Times New Roman", Times, serif;
and it's brought that book into line, I think. I can get font size changes to apply via reader slides but not font family choices; with those, all that happens when I cycle thru those is that is the line space changes!?
I don't want to remove "all specific font family statements" because Sigil book view then becomes ugly. I may need to be more organised though with what I include, if things that were ignored by Sony reader are not going to be ignored by Kobo. same may apply to line height. I'd learnt that line height 1.2em was the same as not specifying a line height at all, for Sony. That may not be true for Kobo.
anyway. lets take it to the Kobo forum. Once I get my head around how book CSS & Kobo reader settings settle any disputes between themselves / resolve any differences, then I will know how to tweak my calibre conversion extra CSS
if you can point me at specific threads where some questions may already have been answered, that will help, the board search function is not really homing in on what I need to know. ( like what does kobo assume if all it sees if font-family:serif; - does it have other fonts "under the bonnet" which is uses when it sees font-family:times; etc etc.
