The situation with Kobo's kepub format is different since they use a different rendering engine and a different DRM scheme from the rendering engine and DRM used by the Adobe Reader Mobile used for epubs.

Thanks for the info.
I am sure you are right, but I will tell you my experience for what it is worth.
Set margin in first book I read and it worked. Never worked again on next 27 books and I tried.
After upgrading to 2.3.1 margin changing worked on all four books I tried it on.
All epubs, all converted with calibre (I like my books formatted a certain way) all with calibre margins settings in page setup as 4.0 points.
Next time I add on a book, I will convert with 24 pt margins and see what happens.
