Can I prevent Nook from auto top margin

rosshalde · 11-19-2014, 08:46 PM

Hello,

I am creating epub files using Sigil.
I have set things up to have no extra margins.
Kobo respects this and does not put any top margin at the beginning of a new chapter. Nook on the other hand is automatically supplying a top margin. This is a problem because sometimes the first thing at the beginning of a chapter is a picture and if there is a top margin, the pic will either not fit or will be smaller than I want. I can click the button (publisher default) on the Nook and that fixes the problem, but is there a way for me to code things so that the Nook will respect the NO TOP MARGIN idea.

I am new at this, so any help is greatly appreciated.

I believe the problem is simply that the Nook has its own idea of how everything should look, and it simply ignores everything you say until you insist on publisher defaults.
