HarryGeez · 03-08-2015, 04:21 PM

I have a few programming epubs and the Kobo Aura's epub reader doesn't seem to respect the epubs' CSS. It seems that people expect the reader to ignore books' CSS so that all books have a uniform look, but this is crucial for programming books because if monospace fonts and margins are not respected, it's impossible to read the code examples.

My workaround right now is to use KOReader but if it's possible I'd prefer to use the Kobo's native ePub/kepub reader. Any ideas? Sorry if this has been posted before, but I tried searching to no avail. Tbh I don't even know what to search to begin with so I searched 'CSS' and went through most of the results, but none were helpful.

Thanks.
