When you change font size too much, then large margins become an issue… I had to return the book and gave a bad review, not because the author did a bad job, but because of the formatting decisions they made. I hope they fix the book - and I’ll update my review if they do.
Here is another eBook on Amazon that has each page as an image. I borrowed it from Overdrive. It was only available as a Kindle eBook. But I borrowed it. When I found out it was only images, I returned it right away and deleted all copies.
