Wrapping your head around the box model allows all sorts of fun things (if you device does not override 'Publishers styles' )
Remember (
) you can work with each (margin,border,padding) individually (top, right, bottom, left) for some fun effects
Margin: the distance to the Border
Border: may be invisible or have thickness (style and color)
Padding: space from the border to the text or image and can be background colored
The example (chapter number) on Sigils page
https://code.google.com/p/sigil/ makes fairly simple use of the Box model (book from feedbooks.com)
