I have pictures because I wouldn't know how to properly describe this.

Basically I have the first 2-3 Harry Potter books straight from Amazon using AZW3. The drop cap at the beginning of the chapters looks perfectly fine. The rest of the series I got in epub format and converted via Calibre to AZW3. The drop cap isn't big enough and doesn't look right. Everything else seems to be fine in the conversions.

I generally use the default options during conversions. Basically, default settings minus unchecking "Remove fake margins" in Structure detection and a check on "Do not add Table of Contents to book" in AZW3 output.

I did try checking "Disable font size rescaling" in Look & Feel as well as selecting "Default Output Profile" in Page setup. Usually I have Paperwhite selected as the output profile.

Any ideas?
