Paperwhite text always justified?

Converted to AZW3 and side loaded several epubs on to my new PW

I had the epub styles set as ragged right since I prefer that, and added my own fonts to the epub.

The PW shows all paragraphs as if they were justified. Is that just the way it is, or is there a setting or workaround?

I used the PW's [Publisher Font] and that didn't change the justification, although the PW did decide to use my fonts.

I would really like the PW to just honor the CSS since sometimes text-align: right / left / center etc. might be there

Kindles (Amazon) tend to do their own thing. You need to use the Kindles (change text size on a K4) menu

1. Yes they do

2. The KP's Font menu allows different typefaces, different sizes, and different line spacing, but nothing about the text alignment. It always comes out justified, and not what the CSS says.

I can choose Publisher Font which works fine and displays using the embedded fonts IAW the CSS though

Edit -- never mind

The book I was reacting to was one that came retail and I missed something when I was 'fixing' their stylesheet. I figured I must have missed something when the other books I side loaded were ragged right so I kept digging
