You can definitely change the line spacing once PRS+ is installed, you're only limited by the .css file you create with your specific wants and needs.

You will run into a few books where fonts and sizes are embedded (I wish book publishers would never do that). Usually opening them up through Calibre's "tweak" function and editing those out will fix it. And if worse comes to worse, open it in Sigil and you can find exactly where the issue is.

But PRS+ will make your 650 seem like a new reader.

Just out of curiosity, why did you return the Glo?
