Thank you very much, that was quick!
I sideloaded everything from Calibre and didn't even realise I had a mix of kepub and epub in my library. If the nicer rendering and footnotes are a kepub feature, I'll convert everything then.
And yes, I made seperate threads to distinguish between my KOReader and Kobo questions. Everything here referred to Nickel, but I hope I'll get my KOReader questions answered as well
