Friends - My first post. I am a newbie to the ebook world. I formatted a book, ran it through Calibre to generate a .mobi file, and viewed it on Kindle for Macintosh. It looks great. However, it did not format exactly as I thought it would.
In the Kindle view, all text was left justified. In my Calibre view it appeared as I created it with three levels of indentation. I used heading 1 <h1> for left most justification, heading 2 <h2> for the next level, and a paragraph setting for the third and largest indentation. Here are the settings from my CSS code:
h1 {margin: 100.0px 0.0px 20.0px 9.0px; font: 16.0px Times New Roman; font-weight:bold}
h2 {margin: 35.0px 0.0px 12.0px 43.0px; text-indent: -25.0px; font: 14.0px Times New Roman; font-style
blique}
p.p2 {margin: 0.0px 0.0px 0.0px 66.0px; text-indent: -24.0px; font: 12.0px Times New Roman}
1. Is this a Calibre issue?
2. Should I use .mobi for Kindle?
3. Should I spend my time learning CSS and stop wasting your time? :-)
4. Am I in the right forum?
Thanks for any and all advice. - Fabe
