I've got a <p> with the class being p1. I have the following CSS for it:
p.p1 { margin: 0 0 0 0; text-indent: 3em; font-family: "FELIXTI"; font-size: 100%; min-height: 16px; text-align: left; font-weight: 900; } The text inside the p1 says Chapter One, but is showing up in normal font weight and normal size. I even went into the file itself and wrapped it in <strong> tags to see if that would do it and nada. It is ignoring that CSS. It has accepted the font family, but that's about all. Am I missing something? Thanks, Raven |

Also, I know the font family can be bold because in Word and Acrobat Pro and Photoshop, I've made it bold. Not sure why it's not working in the ePub book I'm editing in Calibre.

Did you embed a bold version of that font?

I see no font-weight: bold; in p.p1
I see no @font { font-family: "FELIXTI"; font-weight: bold; ... |

JSWolf, I didn't. I didn't see a bold version of it. Just the normal. Yet I was able to bold it inside three other software programs...
theducks-- font-weight: 900; is as bold as it gets. In CSS, you can do bold or you can set a range of boldness based on numbers 100-900 according to the W3 standard. |

Maybe actually posting a complete test ePub that shows this issue would be an idea, including the font, and all the CSS.

I may do that, though I suspect that JSWolf is on to something.
I know that Photoshop and some other programs can make letters bold without a bold font. I'm thinking that Felix Tilting ttf, not having a bold font version, is thus not able to be bolded in ebooks. I know most fonts are tricky enough as it is in non-Kindle-Fire readers anyway. |

ADE does not bold the normal font if a bold version does not exist. Also, font weight in ADE does not work off of numbers to change the weight. It's either bold or normal and the fonts defined (or default) define the weight. You'll need to use bold or normal and not 900. And you'll also need to have a bold font embedded. If that font you are using doesn't have a bold version, you will have to scrap it and find a different font family to use.

FWIW - If you are using Windows look at the Control Panel->Fonts that'll tell you what you have for each typeface, Linux and OS/X will have something similar - I think.

I already had to do that to embed the fonts in the eBook in Calibre, but thanks for trying. ![]() |
