In Sony's BBeB book format, on the other hand, all those decisions are made by the book creator, and the reader has little or no control over the display, other than to alter the font size.
No, this is not what I'm getting at, Harry. I have some ebooks where there is a space of a third or quarter of a page below eg chapter headings, and others where there is no space at all. I have one (converted from a print book) in which there are footnote links buried in the text - which simply don't work in an ebook. You advised me to centre headings when I asked for feedback on my first book - some do, some don't. This is the kind of thing I'm fussing about.
