I think I joined this forum back in June 2017 because I was annoyed with losing the old home screen that Calibre / Kobo GUI let me have ONLY a most recently used list of books / sketches (MRU).
Then this paragraph indent bug appeared sometime later and after being unable to solve it I posted in May 2018.
At the least to recreate: Have a Paragraph indent in LibreOffice Writer ODT of 16pt. Have the Modify CSS and Extended Features checked on.
See that in Calibre eReader app the indent is same as source document, but half on Kobo.
Then delete ePub on Device & Calibre. Use Calibre to make the 16pt indent be 1.4em either by edit CSS or the remove blank paragraph GUI. Kobo will then be correct.
Delete epubs again on device & Calibre, convert without changing indent/paragraphs. Uncheck Modify CSS and Extended Features options and send.

I suggest
1) Rename "Modify CSS" -> "Use kobo_extra.css" Double check nothing happens if it's missing.
2) Rename "Enable Kobo Extended Features" -> "Transfer ePub as Kepub" or some such and explain in Mouse hover that kepubs allow extra reading controls on (some?) models. I've still not understood why people want to change perfectly functional ePubs to kepubs, but that's fine, just make it clearer it's what this option does and why.
Most people using Calibre may never search MobileRead.
