Firstly, you only mentioned the ToC page in the first post. You don't mention that there are other lists in the book with a similar issue later. Jon has bee in his bonnet about in-line ToCs. He thinks they should be removed. Personally, I think he is wrong and just ignore him when he mentions it. And he shouldn't have here as that is not the real question.

But, he is probably right in his second post. There is an issue with the styles on the UL or the LI tags that hasn't passed through the conversion properly. It could be an inheritance issue as the kepub adds two div's around the text. I have seen that break some styles. You can either fix it before the conversion or afterwards. I do it before the conversion.

Thinking about that, I did some test conversions of a book with a list. I started with an epub and did a conversion to both kepub and to epub. In both cases, there were changes that meant that the list didn't look the same after the conversion. But, both converted books look the same. That suggests the issue is in the base conversion, not the kepub part.

To make any more suggestions, we'd need to see the book. Or a sample that shows the problem.

Otherwise, if you used the KoboTouchExtended driver to transform the epub to kepub during the send to book, you probably wouldn't see a problem. Unless there is an issue with the inheritance in the styles.
