Hey everyone,

I'm trying to read a sideloaded (I think that's the right term) PDF book called "Five Nights at Freddy's: The Silver Eyes" by Scott Cawthon. The margins were WAY too large, so I cropped them using a software called BRISS. I also tried Calibre, but that corrupted the file.

After cropping, there were 0 margins, so I uploaded the book to my Kobo Mini.

Although smaller, there are still margins on both sides!

I am sure I cropped all margins, and I double checked on my laptop, and yes. The margins are gone.

But why are they still being displayed on the Kobo?

I tried "Full-screen Mode" but that just made the footer slightly smaller, not effecting the side margins.

I have heard of this thing called KOreader.

Will it help my situation?

How can I fix this?

All ideas welcome.
