Overriding Proportional Spacing
I never use proportional spacing, but it seems all the Kindle Fire readers are locked into proportional spacing. Which is fine everywhere except in my H1 and H2 headings.
There, the headings get pretty ugly, with wildly large spacing. Is there any way to add some code, that would override the proprietorial spacing default in these headings? |

Proportional is each letter has its own width (what you see here). This is the property of the default font. Fixed (Or Mono-space: what you see if you open a Windows Command Prompt. 80 characters, all take up the same width) You need to specify (and maybe embed) a monospace font. read up on font-family: Justified is when the render engine inserts space between words or letters to make the line fill the LINE The text-align: property controls this (the 4 alignment icons if you tolerate SGC codes) |

Excuse me. Yes. I meant Justified. Not proportional.

If the non-CSS way
use the Icon with Strait edge on the Left and Ragged on the Right |

I did some research and found: 7 Free CSS Editors
It looks like Simple CSS has the most users. Where is this? In Sigil? |
