Classic: mobi7 ordered list, first number bold
Ordered lists that come after a heading retain a bold first numeral.
The workaround I use is:
in the html file:
<h2>Header Here</h2>
<!-- this is the key -->
<span class="mobi7only" style="height: 0%; overflow: hidden;"> </span>
<ol>
<!-- ordered list continues on here -->
(to be safe I media query the .mobi7only
class away)
note that this won’t work in some places due to epubcheck (like in nav’s where spans are not allowed).
All ordered and bulleted lists are hard coded in Mobi7. There is no way to turn numbering or bullets off, or change the numbers to another numbering scheme.
I think this might be a separate issue @jeankaplansky. Ok to separate?
you're right. It is a separate issue. I haven't seen the issue you're describing.

Does this happen only when the list is the first content after a header or other bold text? Does it happen when the list is in the middle of a paragraph? And... What device is it happening on? Kindle DX? Something older?

it only affects mobi7 devices (so yes, the DX). I think India Amos first brought this issue to my attention. So far I’ve only seen it after headers, but I haven’t tried to investigate it too deeply since it only affects mobi7 files.
@dvschultz was your screenshot taken on an actual device? I can't seem to replicate the error on Kindle DX on Kindle Previewer.
@madevelopers The Previewer engine is not the same as the actual devices. That being said, I would not worry about this issue, as the DX is no longer sold by Amazon, and the only other devices that still use the Mobi7 format are the Kindle 1 and Kindle 2. Every other Kindle device supports KF8, which does not have this issue.
