MobileRead Forums - View Single Post - Help: Changing the font in a book (even to standard)

GeoffR · 07-03-2017, 05:32 AM

The book appears to be formatted with the <pre> tag instead of <p>. The default for <pre> is to use a monospaced font, and to preserve whitespace.

As well as removing the font-family:monospace and white-space: pre-wrap properties, you could try adding something like this to the stylesheet:

Code:

pre { font-family: inherit; white-space: normal; }

but the <pre> tag is likely to mess up the formatting options on some ereaders, so a real fix would probably involve replacing all the <pre> tags with <p>.
