When I open the document on my Ipad Kindle app it is using the "publisher font" and it looks pretty good but there are some odd line breaks and spacing in places (unlike when opening the ePub in iBooks.)

Is there anything I can do to fix these formatting flaws in the Kindle app?

Thanks,

there is nothing you can do in the Kindle app but you may find that a different approach will work better. Instead of using Calibre to make the conversion try KindleGen or the Kindle Previewer to make the conversion. pay close attention to any errors you might see in the conversion.
