margin-bottom: 2px; margin-bottom: 0.1em; margin-bottom: 8px; padding-bottom: 0.25em; padding-bottom: 6px; You may want to check CSS Margins and CSS Padding on the W3Schools site for more information. I seem to remember the limit is 5K in the Kobo documentation. Perhaps look at splitting your footnote files. Last edited by DNSB; Yesterday at 08:15 PM. |

The first code fragment was the from the text referencing the footnote. The second was the relevant CSS for that text. Otherwise the text was just a normal <p> ... </p>, same as the rest of the book.
I tend to kill padding CSS and change main body text margins to 0 0 0 0. Neither appear implicated here. Quote:

Anyway, if you install Diaps Editing Toolbag then in the editor you'll easily be able to remove the spans that give you the large first letter that you don't like. As to the first paragraph not being indented, that's normal. Not just in eBooks, but in pBooks as well. It shows you that you are at the beginning of the paragraph or section. To me, it looks cheap and tacky when those paragraphs are indented. My preferred indent is 1.2em. As for Widows/orphans, you can override them in multiple ways. In CSS, in Kobo ereader.conf with Code:
[Reading] readingAdobeOrphans=1 readingAdobeWidows=1 Footnotes don't popup with ePub, only KePub. Footnotes should be in a separate HTML file with page breaks in between each footnote. |

I have seen a number of eBooks that do have widows/orphans set to 2 in CSS. So unless the CSS is examined before reading the book, you won't know if it has widows/orphans set to 2 or not until you are reading the book. This does not happen in most book, but it does in some.

De gustibus ... Indent range in this thread is 1 to 1.5em Kepub doesn't do widows/orphans, so no action required. Besides, that was a guess as to why I get 16 lines/page when there's a footnote reference in the text on the bottom line. It continues to be a mystery. As noted, I'm using kepub. The book at issue has footnotes in the same files as text and those files are about 50KB each. It was published by parts of Penguin this year. You'd think they knew better.
