Kobo stock reader not honouring styles?

[jospalau]

I have a book in ePub format which is being shown with space between paragraphs and without indentation in the first line. Same book is shown properly in KOReader and the Calibre editor.

These are the classes for body and regular paragraph:

.calibre {
  display: block;
  padding-left: 0;
  padding-right: 0;
  text-align: justify;
  font-size: 1em;
  text-indent: 1.2em;
  line-height: 1.2em;
  margin: 0;
  widows: 1;
  orphans: 1;
}
.calibre1 {
  display: block;
  margin: 0;
}

This is the class for first paragraph in chapter which is no indented and has margins on top:

.noindent {
  display: block;
  font-size: 1em;
  text-align: justify;
  text-indent: 0;
  margin: 3em 0 0;
}

I always use KOReader and I was surprised to see this. Is it something normal in stock reader?

Nope, not normal at all. The only thing I can think is there is some kind of fundamental error in this specific epub the other readers are ignoring, but Adobe is discarding the entire css.

I believe that css property "noindent" does not exist, so ".noindent" would be more appropriate.

That's an error copy pasting. I will edit the post.

It is the only explanation.

I will look a bit more but it is one of the first files I edit manually and I was baffled the stock reader is not showing it properly when it is said to be the best in honouring the stylesheets. If anyone can confirm the default stock reader style does not indent and sets big margins in paragraph when no style, that's it.

Kobo can indent and adjust its margins via css. Be sure to manually disable the device settings as indicated below. Otherwise they will override your ebook css settings.

An align-justify property in another class was missing ; at the end and as you said the styles were being dropped. For some reason I introduced the error
