Some epub's won't change font/zoom/scale on the eReader side (Ermine)

I updated to ermine before I ever tried to use an ebook so I have no idea if the problem is on non-ermine upgrades or not. I have some ebooks I converted from various formats (html, pdb, etc) that for some reason will not resize. I Converted using AVS Document Converter, bought specially for this task. You can also find 'broken' epubs on smashwords.com.

I have a ton of converted files, spent 50+ hours converting. I Hate Caliber because I love having my books arranged by folders, ie author/series/01-firstbooktitle.epub etc. My first ebook reader was an Ectaco (not true e-ink) which read all sorts of file extensions, still love it but bought two PEs from the Woot sale a few days ago, one for me and one for my step-son and wanted to convert alot of my old book purchases and finds to epub for him and for me to enjoy on the new reader.

Any idea on how to fix this? The PE ereader will not resize these epubs, it just flashes the screen and stays the same size. The Ectaco and Kobo both don't have this issue with the same file.
