I swear, on the the largest setting I can read some of the books across the room. Not that you may consider this a big deal, but I prefer more time spent on reading a page than flipping to the next page to continue the action or when the PB-version of a book is 350 pages and the Reader version is 1000+ (really demotivates a reader who wants to eventually finish a book and sees that they have 750 pages to go!).

Sorry, just had to get a little input out there. Remember to use your resize button wisely.
Please have a look at the book Little Fuzzy that I formatted. I wuld like to know if you think the base font is too large or not. I upped it to 11 point from Book Designer's default of 10 point. if you think it's too large, I can back it down to 10 point and post another copy in the same thread for you to have a look at.
