I have the output profile set to Tablet as I don't want any of the images resized due to the fact that I use a table PC as one of my reading devices.

If I find that the images in a particular book needs adjusting when I read it on one of my other devices (PRS-600 or HTC Desire HD), I'll just chance the output profile for that book and reconvert it (the original epub is kept in a backup archive so I can always return to the original).

I just decided to convert a new book I have from PDF to epub so I can read it on my tablet PC. It's over 7mb in size as a PDF so I'd thought I'd look at the progess of the conversion as it was taking a long time. This is when I notices that it was resizing all my images in the book.

Now as I've said, I don't like to resize the images when using my tablet PC and the setting in the preferences has always be set to tablet to prevent this. So this was a bit strange so I scrolled up the job details to the top to see if it showed what output profile was selected and to my surprise it was set to "Samsung Galaxy S". I don't own a Galaxy S and have no plans on ever getting one so wouldn't ever set it to use this output profile.

I deleted the converted epub and tried it again but clicked on the output profile as Tablet. Again when I looked at the job details the output profile was again set to Galaxy S and all the images were again resized.

I then when into the preferences and changed it from Galaxy S to Tablet and saved the preferences, opened back up the preferences and double-check to make sure it was set to Tablet and I find it has reverted to the Galaxy S again.

I've uninstalled, rebooting and reinstalled Calibre but this makes no difference.

BTW, I'm using 0.7.38 on Win7 Home Premium 64bit.
