I see what you mean—I gave "customization" more weight than it deserved. :-) Then I suppose my question changes to: when they say without conversion, what might they be referring to?

Now I see your follow-up comment in which you say there doesn't seem to be any alignment-related formatting possible in Neoreader. If there isn't, that's... that's just weird. The few videos I've seen that pertain to Neoreader mention some typographic controls that other e-reader programs lack...I wonder why they'd omit that one. Several e-reading apps I've used up to now do have alignment controls—and they work (most of the time).

This is why I used the program "calibre" in the past—to get past the DRM problems and be able to edit the CSS files, fixing some publishers' poor decisions w.r.t. certain hard-coded formatting.
I read "without conversion" as meaning you don't need to convert it to a given format before NeoReader can open it. For example, you need to convert an ePub to read it on a Kindle, or convert a MOBI to read it on a Kobo.

You'll need to try your luck with an app like Moon Reader or KOReader if you want alignment options! But you already knew that! : )
