But here's a pdf that doesn't look so fine…Most of you can't read Dutch, but you'll see and probably agree the font is far too small to be legible on the Kobo. I've forgotten whether I had to tweak anything on the Onyx to get it to display the book the way it looks now, but I don't even think so. And it's zoomed to the optimum size to be legible *and* stil display one whole page per screen. Perfect.
I've noticed issues with font sizes with PDFs (and ePubs grabbed off Gutenberg) on my Elipsa. The PDFs font sizes were wicked tiny and the ePubs were ginormous. Fortunately, the ePubs can be adjusted, but the PDFs did pose a legibility issue. As others have said, this is likely a firmware issue. Make sure to report your feedback to Kobo so they know about the issue. (They're probably tired of hearing from me.)
