So I edited the book CSS (the majority of the text is block 7 (start of chapter) and block 8 (all other paragraphs)):
.block_7 {
display: block;
margin: 0;
padding: 0
widows: 2;
orphans: 2;
}
.block_8 {
display: block;
text-indent: 14.2pt;
margin: 0;
padding: 0
widows: 2;
orphans: 2;
Sadly, I still have widows and orphans.
What am I doing wrong?

Check the source eBook before your conversion and see if it has windows and orphans. If it is ePub, you can have a look at the CSS in the editor.
I always make sure there are no windows and orphans in the CSS except for body where I have windows and orphans set to 1. This is done in ePub and when converting to KF8, it works perfectly.
