If I convert the book to azw3 in Calibre, it gets slightly smaller by condensing the fonts, but Kindle doesn't accept this format and I'm not sure they would do the stripping there, too.
This is most frustrating. EPUB makes it sooo simple. Why does Amazon make it impossible?
You can convert book to AZW3 and embed font there. Kindle accepts AZW3 because it's native format of Amazon. I do such converting.
