update: thinking it though - it cannot be an artifact of Kindle O/S as I see what I call the "squashed" effect on kobo arc tablet. now just maybe what I call "squashed" is what other folks see as "normal", but there's a definite difference between this version and the previous one, for side loaded epubs like the test file I uploaded.

so I really would appreciate feedback from others with other devices. I claim that the previous version displayed as if a line height of about 150% / 1.5 em was in operation. And that the new update has shrunk that to around 130% / 1.3 .
I can't be putting explicit line height CSS back into all my books as that will over-ride the sliders when I use Aura HD; I want to keep my books as-is with all explicit line-height declarations removed.
IF anyone can tell me how to easily force a foll back on my kobo arc tablet, to v5.4, I will do that & report back on the impact. I guess that would involve turn off auto update, uninstall ( assuming Kobo tablet allows an uninstall of Kobo app!) then manually install my drop box backup of the older version. But I don't want to sacrifice having auto-update enabled for all other apps on that device so that's not a practical longer term solution.
