A lot of ePub reading apps for Android do this and they override so much, they almost ignore the CSS. Properly made ePub work.
Download the following free ePub and you'll be able to use the settings on a Kobo in RMSDK with that ePub no problem.

Yes, that worked. Apparently I had a bad batch of ePubs, including files converted with Calibre from .azw to ePub. Any suggestions on Calibre settings to make properly coded ePubs?
For what it's worth, even on that file, I don't like where the top margin sits. I guess I prefer the header and footers in kePubs, even though there's less text on the screen.
I think my statement in the article that users will have to become conversant with Calibre is still valid. One of the ePubs I used was from my library, so it's not like I was trying files from odd sources the average user won't run across. (I'll admit the fanfic downloaded from AO3
might have been badly coded.
