(besides making the entire chapter head an image, which I still plan to experiment with)
Please let me know if that was unclear.

@manfus:
Either use the tables, or the vertical stack, if you're concerned about the iOS display. K4iOS is a kluge to which Amazon keeps applying fixes, but it struggles (and K4iOS on the older iPads works slightly differently than those of the iPads 2-4) as Apple very intently and deliberately doesn't cooperate. K4iOS has a very limited range of abilities, compared to the Fire, HDS, etc. Tables, however,
do work.
Please understand: I'm not trying to push you toward a table solution; you'll be FAR better off with the vertical stack. But if you must have the horizontal alignment, then a table 'tis. Moreover, the table will resize the content "for" you, on the fly, and not wrap your lines, which is something I'm not sure has yet been addressed in this discussion.
HTH.
