I have the original Kobo Aura and I only read sideloaded books on it. I buy them from Amazon for the most part. I keep running into problems with it's formatting features. On my current book neither the line spacing or the font weight can be controlled. On my previous book, converted with the same settings in Calibre, the line spacing did work. I don't recall if font weight worked. I think it did too but I'm not sure.

I've tried changing a lot of things to make books react to the Kobo's features but I never seem to get anywhere. By the way I've also tried converting to Kepub instead of epub. That didn't help.

Am I just out of luck or is there some setting or combination of settings that will make these features reliable? Or is there something I can do with the book editor that will help? I don't know a lot about HTML or CSS and I don't intend to become expert in these things but I have learned to do a few simple things and I don't mind learning more, if I just knew what I had to learn.

Any thoughts will be appreciated.
