First... calibre is vastly superior to other options for my ebook reader. So thanks.

The one gripe I have is with the conversion of comics/manga into epub. Every time that I do it the files double in size. I begin with 2 Mb of images in a .cbr and end with 5. I don't understand the reasons why this would happen (isn't the resolution being reduced?), but would love if someone were to enlighten me.

Or at least suggest a method or form of conversion that doesn't take all the space on my reader on one series.

Thanks in advance.
