Funny

But that's me. I never read ebooks before Sony Reader because I like the way printed book - hard back edition - is made. Sony Reader was the first gadget that resembled a paper book for me and still is as a matter of fact.
I wish Sony made 8 or 9" reader, that would be a perfect reader at home for me. Very much like hard back edition format

I didn't realise that spacing between paragraphs does not mean a whole empty line. It is a very different matter then.
I leave the default 10 margins left/right/top and zero bottom. But it is not mm, I think it is pixels, 2-3 mm? And ident 6, to make it a bit more prominent.
All my books are done in BD. Does it insert spacing between paragraphs?

I agree that margins I have seen in commercially available sony books is atrocity.
