You seem to have a handle on the Calibre css... I've been trying to re-format .pdf files into .epub and it's not playing nice. What I'd like it to do:
-NOT put a blank line between *each* paragraph (eg I don't want internet/fanfic formatting where each paragraph starts not-indented with a blank line between)
-indent each paragraph (EXCEPT the first of a new chapter, or after a "double return" {ie blank line between one paragraph and the next}),
-be able to selectively "blockquote" sections (inset right and left, and control font size)

What it *actually* does:
-indent each paragraph, but remove spacing between *all* paragraphs including places where it 'changes scene/location' and needs a space

I haven't been able to effectively "blockquote".
And, of course, there's just some rather bad formatting of the original PDFs.

Any help would be SPECTACULARLY appreciated.
Thanks!
