One issue with ePub is that there are no options on the device except font size and screen orientation. So if you want a Sans Serif font, or bold text, or left justification this needs to be in the ePub. I like all three, so I use the following extra.css (for Calibre, I don't know how to use this with Stanza):
Code:
body {
    font-family: sans-serif;
	font-weight: bold;
	text-align:  left;
}
The default is the Serif font, normal weight, and full justification.
I think that the main advantage to ePub is that one can go into the original files and make changes like the ones described above.

I would have thought though that text-align: justify; would be the way to go. I'm surprised to see that text-align: left; works to justify text.
