Hi

I had a quick look on Coo!Reader3 both on Windows and Linux. I failed to display anything on Windows but I remarked on Linux (v. 3.0.56.7) a special setting (Page) for Image scaling options regarding inline images or block images. The option choice is between: disabled, integer (0,1,2,3), arbitrary scale (0,1,2,3).

see screenshot

These settings have not been kept for Koreader. Koreader has no image scaling options. I think the current and unique setting Koreader uses for all images is arbitrary scale, maximum size. That's why the svg image is full height on page 2; why each other image is, according to its shape, either fullscreen or only full width or height.*

The missing scaling options would not be important if Koreader took into account the CSS settings for images. Unhappily it does nothing of this kind; either the width (absolute or relative) as I said in the opening post, or the float property are totally ignored. About everything is centered. This can fit some books. Only some of them...

So, with Koreader, as far as the text is concerned, you'll enjoy a lot of custom settings. However, if your book has images, you'll have only one maximum size to fit them all.

* only if it can do it by multiplying its size by 2 or 3. So the small publisher logo will go for example from 100px to 200 or 300px.
