Kindle E-book problems

I have officially published my first E-book on Kindle at Amazon (click here). BUT, while the pretest was passed, I have no confidence it will work well on the new Kindle Paperwhite. The newest Previewer seems to say my file is fine for the other devices but on Paperwhite setting it refuses to change font size or font face. I will not know if it works on the actual device until I get one just after Christmas.

I have tried everything I can find. the free Word Reader (6.24) will also create html files from doc files, so I tried it and it does work on Paperwhite, but it has taken out all the footnote references!

The only option I have left to try is to see if I upload the doc file to Kindle, it will come out better…rather than having WORD create an html.
