I just tested the following and it works — if you don't mind using a Courier font. I used 'afterwriting, which is designed for screenplay format (which is why it only offers Courier). You can save to PDF, but one of the "extra" choices is saving to Kindle friendly PDF (i.e., it cuts the margins to fit in a 6" Kindle eReader).
What I did is went to the English transcript on TED, hit CNTR+A to select all text and pasted it in a new document at 'afterwriting (
https://afterwriting.com/). Then I deleted the superfluous stuff at the top and bottom, chose save to Kindle friendly PDF and read that file into Calibre and transferred it to the Kindle. Hopefully the screenshots make it clearer.
(The first (and last) images are the screenshots of the resulting PDF document from my Voyage — so, if you don't like the result you ignore the rest.)
EDIT: The 'afterwriting images are not in order. The second image should be the first, the first should be the second, the fourth should be the third and the third should be the fourth. The fifth is actually in the right position!
(I don't know how I messed this up. Sorry.)
