As this is something that hasn't changed in the firmware, doing that would not have helped.

I always use Calibre to upload my ebooks. Maybe that was part of the problem?
So I tried ADE: everything stays in place… but the bodytext stays justified as well. I can't left-align. And I can't change the line-height.
Read the posts above. The justification option only affects the text that uses the defaults, or what is set in the body tag. If a paragraph or other style sets the justification, it will not be overridden. And it doesn't matter how the epub was put on the device.

For epubs, it doesn't matter how the book got on the device. They will be the same whether it is ADE, calibre or a manual sideload. If you are seeing differences, it is because the books are different, not the method of sideloading.

The rules are different for kepubs. I don't sideload these enough to really know what the rules are. Plus, I always removed the justification styles from my books except for the styles that need them. And when I read a purchased kepub, I have to accept what is in the book for the styles.
