Hello,

I use Calibre to convert books to AZW3 for use with Kindle and Kindle apps, but I have a problem. Is there any way, during a mass conversion, to make sure that all books have the same base font size. I know that fonts can be resized int he reader, but a lot of times even the largest size is too small. Most times whatever font the books have can be changed while reading, but there are some books that start out with a smaller font and even increasing the size while reading doesn't make them as big as in other books. I know there is a checkbox in Calibre to overide the publisher font so you can use whatever one you want while reading, but this doesn't seem to help the actual size. I also know that you can fiddle witht he font size in individual books, but I would like to be able to just convert them all at once with settings that I know will make them all the same size to begin with so that if I increase the font size while reading, it will be as book on each book.

Thanks.
