so it seems to have simply ignored the "width:77%" directive in the original epub.
Also, though I claimed that the mobi7 file had the same "look and feel" in all of the e-ink emulators, that wasn't precisely true. There were variations in the font sizes relative to the image sizes, and possibly other small variations. They were still readable however.

Well, yes. That's what it's
supposed to do--ignore the % setting, in the KF8 coding, entirely. (Am I not paying enough attention here, which is
always possible? Are we saying something other than what I think we are????
)
The KF7 ignores, and
always has, any % settings for image sizes. The coding you are reporting is what I'd expect to see, sans any media queries or fallback styling on the HTML tags.
Vis-a-vis Delenda Est...well, by the sheer virtue of time, it shall. I, for one, am
glad that Amazon doesn't throw its customers under the bus. Yes, yes, it makes my life harder, but so what? I'd hate it if Amazon turned into Apple, tossing OSes and hardware, etc., aside, like so much bits, orts and detritus from the dining table.
I hate that.
Warning: AppleHate Rant:
Spoiler:
When the iPads came out, not instantly, but shortly after, for testing purposes, I purchased a first-gen, top of the line. Within less than a year, Apple had stopped supporting it, and the OS. This was a four-digital purchase, brand-new...and they just assumed that of course, like a little lemming, I'd g buy some NEW Apple product. I've also heard similar tales, abot7 everything--laptops, software, OSes--from many of our clients, over and over. It think it's at best a cavalier way to treat your clients, and at worst, just the worst sort of example of rapacious capitalism. Apple lost me, forever, as a client, when they threw away my $1400 purchase, or whatever it was, with no regard whatsoever for my hard-earned. People can badmouth Amazon and MSFT as much as they like, but AMZ still supports K1's, some 10+ years down the road, and MSFT earned a LOT of undying loyalty, supporting XP for what, 16 years? They were on Win10, before they officially gave over, on XP? Lotta love for that type of customer support.
So: as soon as I can catch my breath, hopefully tonight (ran out of consciousness, last night), I'm going to test William's plugin. Albert? Are you crazy busy, hmmmm????
