In the GoodEReader review, they say you can't change margins and line spacing on side-loaded content. Is this true for Kobo readers, or is it only for content with certain kinds of DRM?
I have very, very, rarely had this problem with any book I have purchased or downloaded using Overdrive and sideloaded. I have seen this on books that are drm free and have a calibre stylesheet which has specified margins etc. It has always worked for me to use calibre's Look and Feel to make adjustments (like checking to ignore fonts and margins). The Kobo driver (Thanks davidfor) lets you specify a favourite font, margins, etc.

As for mobi--it's pretty hit or miss. I would do a bulk convert to ePub using calibre in pretty big batches and be done with it.
