I have had the problem of text going off the right edge of the screen in some Smashwords books, it turned out to be a negative right margin set in the stylesheet. Here is an example of a paragraph style from a Smashwords book I purchased from Kobo:
<p class="western16">“There is no cause for alarm,” assured
company spokesman Chow leLee. “Rumors of a virus in the template
are overstated. We just want to tweak the security parameters a
bit, before offering a free update to consumers.”</p>
.western16 {
color: #000;
direction: ltr;
display: block;
font-family: "Cambria";
font-size: 1em;
margin-bottom: 0;
margin-left: 0;
margin-right: -0.5in;
margin-top: 0;
orphans: 0;
so-language: en-US;
text-indent: 0.3in;
widows: 0
}
Edit: Though that doesn't seem to be the problem with your scrambled book. |
The problem with the text going off the screen is due to
Code:
span.Apple-tab-span {white-space:pre}
because ADE does not wrap a pre.
