Styles not showing in ePub.

Vijay · 11-19-2010, 08:50 AM

i have created an ePub file from PDF, the fonts from CSS not showing in the ADE and Sony viewer too.
i validated the file through ePub validator but no errors.

Can any one guess what might be the problem?

There are lots of errors that don't show up in the validators. If fonts are not showing up, there is probably a problem with the @font-face definitions.

That's my guess. Care to give any hints? Show us the css file, at least?

This is almost always caused by an error in your css.

Run the css through the W3 validator to find the error.

Did you embed your fonts in ePub?
iPad can show all fonts without embedding, but ADE and devices based on Adobe SDK won't.
I ever asked a question about this,
Does ADE suport only one font without embedding?
