Although I buy the majority of my books from Kobo (because they usually have the best prices after allowing for exchange rate/fees and promo codes), I usually sideload them as epubs to avoid the hyphenation and justification problems of kepubs.
Kepub doens't seem to be an appreciated format.
It's new for me, I just got here 4 days ago, so it's nice to learn stuff like this.

But so far, I don't really like how epub look on the h2o.
The text is too close to the top, and with the shadow of the beze, it's quite uncomfortable.


Kepub have a light margin on top, which is perfect to me.
