ADE recognizes an additional "page template" file, that can change the layout and margins dynamically depending on the screen/window size. Maybe the your 2-column book has it (and 2-column layout is kicking in) and your 1-column one doesn't. I believe that ADE has some default "two columns if wide" logic anyway, so perhaps the 1-column book actually has a template file to override this and the 2-column one doesn't.



If it's fixed 2 columns, I'd choose the 1-column version, easier to process. If it's a dynamic layout, the one you like best.
Yes, this is the ADE. And yes, if I resize the window to a smaller size, it will change to 1-page view when there is no space to display 2 pages.

It will show as 1-page view on Moon+ Reader. The screen on the device is not large enough to test 2-page view of the ePub on Moon+Reader.

I like the 1-page view better and also because it does not look like a "scanned" copy.

Ps: Doitsu has the explanation for this, see his reply and mine below
