I don't see anything in nickel's existing CSS which affects the width allocated to the header/footer captions.

I can see on my test KA1 that the whole footer caption block only takes up the central 8cm of the full screen width of 11.8cm. FWIW the header caption is similarly restricted. I don't know what the left/right unused blocks are supposed to be for. ETA: The left/right unused blocks are part of the page turning zones.

Unless geek1011 can suggest something better you could try one (or both) of the following:
  • Use patch Custom new header/footer font to reduce font-size a bit.
  • Stop prefixing the book's Title with its Series/Index. Presumably you're currently using a calibre metadata plugboard, but I'm not sure why you feel this is necessary with the current firmware.
