There are still a few bugs I'd like to see worked out, both by B&N and the publishers. One important feature to me is the ability to increase the typesize. My 65+ eyes have retinal issues and looking at fine print is very tiresome.
Recently, I bought several books for which the fontsize looks small, even in the "Very Large" mode. I compared them with other books on my Nook and found the typesize on the screen was smaller by half. There seems to be a lot of variability in this feature from book to book. I'd like to see publishers agree on some industry standards. Also, the ebooks should be tested in the various readers. "Very Large" fontsize should not appear "Kinda Small"
If a book is not DRM protected, I can import it into Sigil and change the fontsize. Are there any fixes when the book is DRM protected?

Are you also changing the font type? I've noticed that sizes sometimes differ based on font types. The books I've looked at seem to have at least 2 font types. You might want to try that!
