Thanks so much for all the support eschwartz!

Ok, I'm changing to UTF-8. I got the impression that I should use ISO-8859-1, but this is getting boring with all the charset isues.

I did a trial convert with Genesis only (that is, Creation up until the death of Joseph). So I agree; that's where I'd put a page break. After that is Exodus (Moses etc). But Calibre is putting a page break for every chapter. A chapter is just a page or so of normal text. There are 50 chapters in Genesis, so I've got to figure out how to stop this page break! It's not there in the HTML or the CSS.

The indentation is made with CSS margin-left: 2.5em;
Maybe Calibre ignores anything to do with Margins...?
