Need help with font size

Dear fellow lovers of k2pdfopt,

I've recently come to know this awesome software to convert scientific papers into a format which can be comfortably read on the Kindle.
Thank you so so much for that!!

Now I was trying to increase the font size by a bit but I need help with that.
I tried it out with my Kindle-Paperwhite2 and several different pdfs and which ever settings I use except the preset "2-colum paper" configuration it produces weird results.

How do I adopt the "2-column paper" settings to increase the output font size?

I would not mind line breaks to be in a different place and also not if images were wider than the kindle screen so that you have to swipe while viewing images.

What I tried:
  • Using Paperwhite 2 output (produced a similar looking pdf as "Kindle 1-5" but on the Kindle it showed a tiny pdf-page in the middle of the screen).
  • Using "fixed output font-size", both with "native pdf" enabled and disabled (Produced a similar looking pdf- same font size also- but on the Kindle it again showed just a tiny pdf-page in the middle of the screen)
  • Increasing the "DPI" from 167 to 267, both with "native pdf" enabled and disabled (With "native pdf" enabled the results were the same as above; "native pdf" disabled gave me a strangely shifted text in the pdf)

I am out of ideas. Can anyone help me please?

Best,
Jana
