After many years one feature I've never been able to use the way I would like is the text zoom. I think this would be really cool If I could make it work the way I want.

I use eBook Publisher to create my imps, usually from imported HTML files. I like this method as it gives me the best control over margins, justification and font choices.

I really don't much like most of the fonts, the serif fonts are hard to read and the monospaced are, well, monospaced. The sans-serif are much too big for my taste. Typically, I do everything with smallfont, but it doesn't zoom. Small font can be really small for some reading conditions.

I would really like to build a file where the smaller font is smallfont and the zoomed font is one of the others I can specify. I am guessing this simply isn't possible, but I thought I would check!

Thanks all.
