One that doesn't, and just leaves everything at default (apart from the chapter headings and copyright page maybe), displays 30 lines and 51 characters.
The length of a line in many books is between 60 and 70 characters per line. LaTeX, a much used typesetting system, uses a default of 67 characters per line. I like that line length a lot. The Kindle can do it, but then the fonts become too small for me.
This may be an odd request, but.... could you please try this?
- Set the smallest margins possible.
- Set the line height to the smallest settings.
- Set the font size to such a size that the number of characters per line becomes around 67. (Anything in between 60 and 70 would do, but 67 would be the perfect target.)

Take a look at the attached photo in message #201 of this thread. It's from an eBook I posted using Charis SIL with a 92.5% of the default size with a line height of 1.01 and margins set to 0.
About 80-90 characters per line with 51 lines.
