ACCESS does not supply the DRM scheme used by Kobo. That is a Kobo addition which does avoid the licensing fees. There is also a DRM scheme which Kobo has had some input into which has been proposed for use by Readium which would give us yet another DRM scheme.

Yes, I'm aware and have seen different browser engines handle web pages differently. I just wanted to state that Kobo should use only one renderer (I guess Kobo would choose Access; lower costs/fees or easier to build/adapt or any other reason etc.) that works with both epub flavours and different DRM schemes. Using only one renderer will build pages near 100% identical.

I do use Datalogics DL Reader as it is a lot faster as ADE.
