Hi,

I find that commercial EPUBs often have much too large margins for my taste (when reading them on my PRS-505), so I generally strip the DRM (for my own use only!) and adjust the margins by doing en EPUB->EPUB conversion in calibre. This works well for many files, but there are some where the output still has large margins even if I set calibre to generate zero margins. I can work around this by doing and EPUB->LIT->EPUB conversion, which always seems to work, but was wondering if there's anything obvious I could be missing.
