      Ok, so I made an epub and then modified it for kindle output. So far, so good. I used the terminal and kindlegen to produce the .mobi file. But when I open it, I have two problems. I'll made the first problem known in a previous post. My second problem is as follows:

      My bullet lists are all out of wack. For example, when I preview my file in the Kindle Previewer (it works fine in ADE and the Kindle App for Mac, but not on the Kindle Previewer), I get this:

      The bullet lists are controlled by an external css style sheet. They are coded like this:

      HTML

      <ul>
      <li class=”bulletlist”>Rome was invaded by the religions of the East, so that pagan syncretism and religious tolerance produced in the Roman Empire, in the words of one historian, a common, interfaith world religion;</li>

      <li class=”bulletlist”>Rome was sports- and entertainment-mad, and choking on sexual excess;</li>

      <li class=”bulletlist”>Rome dominated the civilized world politically and created a global empire.</li>
      </ul>

      CSS

      li.bulletlist {
      font-weight: normal;
      font-style: normal;
      font-size: 1em;
      line-height: 1.25em;
      text-align: justify;
      margin: 1em .5em 1em .5em;
      }

      What am I doing wrong? Why is it rendering so weird? Thanks for your help. I can't seem to figure out where I've gone astray.

      Nick
