Device: Kobo Aura HD
The book was bought and downloaded directly through the shop on the Kobo itself. When I went through the library on the kobo books site, it said the format was Adobe DRM epub. I got to download it through there and then in Adobe Digital Editions and in Calibre I unpacked it and got a look at the image files. Used a batch resizer program to make them all double size, repacked the epub, and put it on the device. Well at least everything's legible now, but now all the fancy official functions like the contents are all gone. Which is again pretty silly for a reference book. Now I get to choose between having that, or actually being able to read graphs and formulas.

It seems like the Aura HD has this with images in general though. I've seen it in sideloaded epubs as well, where the images are supersmall. Looks like every time I get an epub with images, I'll have to sort all this out the hard way.

I'm very new to kobo, and I see you all posting code and all that. Are there hacks or mods or something for these devices that could solve this?
