Converting text to images is a horrible idea. It prevents control of font and size, dictionary lookup, and notes/highlighting. And it is bad for accessibility.

Also Kindles have some very specific formatting quirks. max-width is simply ignored for images. That used to be fairly well documented but Amazon has dumbed down their publishing guidelines in recent years. Now a lot of detailed information is only available by asking experienced e-book formatters.

In my opinion your desire to keep a block of text all on one page is leading you down a bad path. Trying to force your desired formatting is only going to cause problems for your readers. Keep it simple for e-books.
