Hello, I have a problem with fonts in an ebook (azw3).
In the ebook editor I see no font in the fonts list - both editing it as an epub or as azw3.
Yet the ebook is displayed both by the kindle and the calibre reader with an ugly monospaced font, very disturbing to read.
I would like to change it reverting the book to a "no font specified", so that the kindle uses its default ones, but I am unable to.
What I can't understand is WHERE the font might be specified.
In the Fonts list it does not appear.
In the manage fonts dialog, a "monospace" font-family appears but only if I edit the epub version (not in the azw3).
That said, I find absolutely no specification of the font in the .css files (see attachment).
The only thing that refers to it is in this:
Code:
.calibre4 {
display: block;
font-family: monospace;
font-size: 0.88889em;
line-height: 1.2;
text-align: left;
text-indent: 0;
white-space: pre-wrap;
margin: 0
}
There are two other entities with font-family: monospace specified, .center3 and .right; but even if I comment out with /* */ the font-family row, nothing changes in the way the ebook looks.
I have checked the html files as well, but no font is specified in the tags.
For example, see:
Code:
<html xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml">
<head><meta charset="UTF-8"/>
<title>Sconosciuto</title>
<link href="../styles/0001.css" rel="stylesheet" type="text/css"/>
<link href="../styles/0003.css" rel="stylesheet" type="text/css"/>
</head>
<body class="calibre">
<h2 class="center2" id="heading_id_2"><em class="calibre5"><strong class="calibre1">PROLOGO</strong></em></h2>
<pre class="center3">*</pre>
<pre class="right"><em class="calibre2">Valico del Gran San Bernardo, Alpi Pennine</em></pre>
<pre class="right"><em class="calibre2">Maggio 1800</em></pre>
<pre class="calibre4"> </pre>
<pre class="calibre4">Una folata di vento fece mulinare un turbine di neve intorno alle zampe di Styrie, [...]</pre>
All this text is displayed in fixed width font which, to me, is absolutely confusing.
Can somebody please help?
Thank you so much!
