I have been editing my ePubs in Sigil and using the Tweak ePub feature in calibre to remove the margins. I would verify that the margins went away in Calibre's viewer. This worked fine until yesterday when I realized my reader uses ADE to render its ePubs and ADE recognizes and uses the page-template.xpgt file for margins. This means I have a bunch of books that looked margin free in Calibre's viewer but really have a margin in them.

As of Calibre 0.7.53 calibre removes the Adobe page template margins during conversion. My problem is identifying the ePubs that have a page-template.xpgt file.

Can you add identifying which books have a page-template.xpgt file to the QC plugin? Once I have these identified I can reconvert the books with the same settings and have Calibre remove the Adobe page template margins.

Thanks for all your work and considering this request.
