After proof-reading/editing my epub and generating a TOC I decided everything was right and set the justification from 'left' to 'centered' after seeing how books looked on the new Kindle I went out and bought for purposes of comparison. Everything's fine, except that the paragraph indentations are now all ragged. I have investigated the issue and know that I need to add 'text-indent: 3%;' somewhere, presumably in my stylesheet, so that the setting adjusts for zooming.
All the online posts I've read assumed knowledge I lack, so they weren't helpful at all. If this entry indeed belongs in my stylesheet, where exactly does it go, and how? As a longtime linux user, the procedure for solving issues like this was always to post the file in question so there was no doubt about where the new entry belonged. Before I go down that path, this is the stylesheet generated by sigil, not one of my own creation...
Thanks.
