Irregular Word Spacing In Mobi

Hi

I've been dropping in and out the forums for about a year now, good stuff, lots of answers. Anyhoo, I now have a question I can't seem to find the answer too so I thought I'd ask.

The short version.
  • Doc to Filtered Html (Done)
  • Filtered Html to generic ePub in Sigil (Done)
  • Sigil - Add very simple H12&3 & firstline indent CSS (Done)
  • Sigil - Split the file down into chapters, title & verso etc (Done)
  • Notepad++ - split the ePub and scrub the file. (Simple & Elegant)
  • Re-zip, check on various Desktop apps (inc ADE) - Looking great.
  • Still a generic ePub, Fire into Calibre (Top program, by the way) & run conversion to mobi.....(Hmmmm?):blink:
The only setting I altered from default was put the TOC at the start, everything else to default...output Kindle from Default generic epub. I hurriedly plugged in my K3 and dumped the new mobi onto the device...TADA! superb, even the static title verso looked excellent (Kindlegen seems to hate those). It was only when I started testing the TOC and jumping randomly about in the text that I found my problem, and I can't figure out why.

Randomly, somethimes a whole para, some times just a sentence or two, or even just a word or two, I get what appears to be double spacing between words. This wouldn't be to much of an issue if these "patches" weren't sitting amoungst properly spaced text.:angry:

Anyway, any thoughts guys? :chinscratch:

Before you ask, all text is enclosed in <P> </P> tags with only class style listed. It's as clean as I can make it. All Para breaks use <P>&nbsp; </P>, there are no scan font br, or well any other tags in the files (xhtml).
