But it ued to if it no longer does.

The other thing I notices with KePub is the need for a wider line height because of the bug that splits the first line of the next page. I prefer a smaller line height then you need in KePub to not notice the bug.
You keep talking about this bug with the line height in kepubs, but I have mine set to the smallest line height and I've never seen it. Maybe that is font dependent, as well? I generally use gill sans on my Kobo...maybe that is why this bug doesn't affect me?
