it wasn't me. That's not my driver. But, I did experiment and my advice was to run away from it as quickly as possible

That spacing is dependent on the book. The CSS specifies the margins between the paragraphs. For some reason, all the reviews are done with badly laid out books that leave this as the default. The book xtine is reading has it set to a small value. Personally, I set the top and bottom margin for "normal" paragraphs to zero.

Eschwartz that's a shame it's not available anymore, but I guess there are always limits to what can be done. Rather lose stats than lose books each sync! Thanks.
As of FW3.11.0, the firmware has two sets of options for the page number display. One is whether the display is for the full book, or the current chapter. The latter only works for kepubs. What is displayed can be the page number (Page x of y), the percent left or the time remaining. The latter is also only for kepubs.
