Weird looking text on mobi (converted from epub)
Hello! I hope I'm posting in the right forum.
I'm helping a friend to create an ebook which will eventually be published. We already created an epub (using indesing and calibre e-book editor), and I converted the book to .mobi using KindlePreviewer. Although the output file looks good on the KindlePreviewer, I checked it in a Kindle Paperwhite, and I get some weird looking text (example in attached image) on some paragraphs which have a certain style. I've been trying to find out what is the cause but I can't seem to find one. The encoding for every file is encoding='utf-8'. I'll paste the xhtml and css for the text in the picture in order to help Code:
p.titulo_3blanco { -epub-hyphens: none; -webkit-hyphens: none; color: #1d1d1b; font-family: "Roboto Condensed", sans-serif; font-size: 1.083em; font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; font-weight: normal; line-height: 1.2; margin-bottom: 23px; margin-left: 0; margin-right: 0; margin-top: 28px; orphans: 1; page-break-after: avoid; page-break-before: auto; text-align: left; text-decoration: none; text-indent: 0; widows: 1; } Code:
<p class="Titulo1grande---indice"><a href="epub_breviario-10.xhtml#uEZvBBaBuGbEt9Xc34VIH7A">Los Diseños “Nacionales”</a></p> <p class="Titulo2---indice" xml:lang="en-GB"><a href="epub_breviario-10.xhtml#uky2JaBVxFCLXcwsUdR9Ku7">17. Alemania</a></p> <p class="titulo_3blanco---indice" xml:lang="en-GB"><a href="epub_breviario-10.xhtml#unKeC7Ijr9hDhSFeFp8T4gD">ULM</a></p> <p class="titulo_3blanco---indice" xml:lang="en-GB"><a href="epub_breviario-10.xhtml#uNSDUWpq4Ulfspi4FK83TTF">El Nuevo Diseño Alemán (NDA)</a></p> <p class="titulo_3blanco---indice" xml:lang="en-GB"><a href="epub_breviario-10.xhtml#uBY8ZOVXxmyM9ovSlaEAX8F">Acerca de la Identidad alemana en Diseño</a></p> (The xhtml and css is messy because it was created by my friend, who doesn't know how to edit it.) Thanks for reading! |

Can you please share the CSS for "titulo_3blanco---indice" attribute. Else you can email the ePub file at "digital.ebook.solution@gmail.com" so that I can debug it.
Thanks! |

You might try stripping out the xml:lang="en-GB" bits and see if that fixes it. I vaguely recall xml:lang being problematic on Kindle, but I could be remembering wrong.
