Hey guys, I'm tech savy but new to the whole eReader world. Got the Kobo for my daughter who loves it.

But I signed up with the local library and downloaded for her two books. One of them is PDF - yuck to navigate, and the other is epub but has this font scaling problem and the font is soo tiny we can barely read it.

So it's kind of a noob question but the whole thread here only applies to non-DRM books right? Is there anything I can do to make these books more readable on these DRM library downloads? If I open it up in a zip program I of course don't see a stylesheets.css file. Maybe my only option would be to strip the DRM with the Python script, convert via Calibre, etc?

Thanks!
