Well, that's true. KP3 is more browser-ish than "real" Kindles and Kindle readers. For example, it has ZERO relationship to KCR or DX and surely, no relationship at all to KF7, which, alas and alack, still exists.

If you have errors, it could be due to the ePub having errors. If you are using Sigil or the Calibre editor, use the epubcheck plugins (both have one) to check for errors.

OR, it's simply being sideloaded, by the 3rd party, in a way that misleads them.

Yeah, well, again, KP3 is more browser-ish, more KF8-ish, more like Azardi than eInks. You can't rely on dropcaps, when you can override them, easily and readily, with the PPW family of devices.
NOT unless you develop specific coding, for a specific layout, and embed that coding for that book alone. That works regardless of the font. IF you embed a 2nd font, for the Drop--in short, it wil never work 100% of the time.
