Well, I bit the bullet and installed Digital Editions in a Windows computer, I have to transfer the files between computers for testing, though.

I noticed that DE does not seem to support "position: relative" which means the "predrop" class (Ch. XXX, XXXIII) was not working properly. I change the code into something that seems to work. I also noticed I had the width and height of the cover image mixed up.

Code:
span.predrop {
  font-size: 25%;
  font-weight: normal;
  vertical-align: top;
  line-height: 1.9;
  /*position: relative;
  top: 0.4em;*/ /*ADE does not support this*/
}
Other problems with DE are:

- It does not support "font-variant: small-caps", or at least the last sentence of the book is not rendered correctly.

- It breaks lines before an em-dash. This is incorrect in Spanish, where em-dashes are used very much like parentheses. Think of a linebreak just before a closing parenthesis.
