Thanks for pointing me in the right direction Jackie... I taught myself some CSS, downloaded Sigil, experimented a bit (a bit much to be honest) with formatting (actually de-formatting), corrected a couple of bullshit formatted e-Books, uploaded them in Calibre, made a couple of conversion scripts and the results are fabulous! Never imagined this could happen. From now on there's no need for me anymore to find an e-Reader on which I can set fonts, margins and all the other stuff.

"My" trick: Get rid of all the lousy formatting in e-Book files with Sigil and create your own formatting scripts in Calibre. Want to change the way the e-Books look? Convert them in another way.

Thanks again!
