Hi,

I've used Calibre to generate a .pdf from my .epub file. Two things I have noticed.

- When I add a margin on 72pt to the .pdf so that the book has a (nice-ish) border, then this applies to the cover image as well. That means the first page of the .pdf has its cover image inside of that 72pt text box as well, which looks pretty ugly. Can I disable the border for the cover page, or stretch the image across the whole page?

- Internal links seem to be unsupported still. Either they should be printed in blue and then supported properly, or if they're not supported they shouldn't be printed in blue. How responsive are the devs, or is Calibre OSS?

Also, can I affect the font that's used for the .pdf without touching the original .epub?

Cheers!
