I know, Harry, that imposing such text-justification is not appreciated by those who have the option to change it on their device, but in my case, my reader (REB1200 and/or EBW1150) doesn't allow for this. I'm not sure which ones do (I take it the Cybook Gen 3 can, but what about the Kindles or Sonys).
As a compromise, I've chosen a small margin (2% is approx 2em, but 2px may be better) and to present my ebooks with text-justification "on" as it appears much more "polished" this way to me. I know this is subjective, but hey, most print books have full justification.
As an ebook creator, I don't overly change the underlining source .html that I obtain, but do want to give it a more professional look and feel. At the same time, I hopefully make it better able to support (though compromises) multiple ebooks formats from that same .html(s).
