Different ePub viewers sometimes display ePubs slightly differently. You said that it displays fine in Calibre. What ePub viewer/reader is displaying the "gap?"

Calibre is an excellent tool, but you may want to use ADE for testing purposes since most ebook reader manufacturers licensed ADE technology from Adobe. I.e. if it looks OK in the ADE desktop version, it usually looks OK on the actual devices.

My guess would be that Pubit split the original .html file into sever smaller smaller files to avoid file size limitation issues and if your original single .html source file contained a top margin definition, it might have been carried over to the split files causing the "gap" issues.

You can easily test this, by renaming your .epub file to a .zip file and unzipping the .html files. If the "gaps" occur at the end of an .html file, file splitting and/or style issues are causing the problem.

Not necessarily, because Kindlegen and Calibre simply skip HTML code that Kindles cannot handle. Also Kindle source files don't have to be split.
