I recently purchased an ePub book. It turns out to be formatted very strangely, with an approximately 1" margin to the left and right. On my 5" CyBook Opus, this leaves very little space for text, making the book very unpleasant to read.

I've tried editing the CSS file (called pdlmsr.css in this particular ebook), eventually in frustration changing all margin-left attributes to 0. Nothing gets rid of the massive margin.

Is there some other CSS attribute that I should be considering? I've traced through the XML and CSS, and am coming up stumped.

(I'd post the CSS file, but copyright, blah...)

Any help greatly appreciated!
