Yeah, sorry, I should have clarified. I'm doing testing with the IOS Kindle app. I created a simple epub in calibre, and included the following block of text:
Test
iiii
OOOO
TEST
The second and third lines are formatted as monospace, so it's easy to tell visually if it really is being rendered in a monospace font. I converted my epub to mobi, and emailed it to my Kindle account. The doc looks fine -- I see my monospace fonts where they should be.
Next, I used kindlegen to convert my epub to mobi, and again emailed it to my Kindle acocunt. Now, all the text is the same proportional font -- no monospace anywhere.
I tried opening both mobi files with Kindle Previewer and saw the same result as on my iPhone -- monospace fonts correctly display in the mobi created by calibre, but no monospace fonts in the one created by kindlegen.
This is the css for my monospace section:
Code:
.class_s {
display: block;
font-family: "Source Code Pro", monospace
}

I am not sure how Kindle Create comes into this. Could you explain further?

That's exactly the font-family value I'm using..
Whoops, I meant to say kindlegen, not Kindle Create.
