Hi Quoth, thanks for the quick reply! I made the book in InDesign, exported to ePUB and have been editing the code in Calibre.

My issue is that in order for the embedded fonts to look normal in KDP, Ive had to increase their size dramatically (like up to 1.9em from 1.2) so when they get downconverted back to mobi, they look HUGE. Hence why I'm trying to target the older devices specifically.

Is there any other way around this other than to give up on my beautiful fonts? Or am I doing something wrong? All of my special fonts are targeted with ems, should I be using % instead?
