And yes, IMO, the header is too large. The header and page number footer use the same size and family as the body text - so they both shrink and grow - not a good thing if the person is using a really *LARGE* font size for the text section.

And I've noticed that at the smallest two font sizes, a couple of the fonts are so small as to be unreadable without my prescription reading glasses - that's *SMALL*!!!

And please remember that this is a beta version software - 0.91 to be accurate. Some things will be added or changed in the production release. Hopefully including hyphenation support.

So MobiPocket formatted books seems to have some of the same issues as books formatted for the Connect Store as far as text size goes.

Hyphenation support is only doable if you have dictionary support for looking up words and where to hyphenate unless you add in soft hyphen support which you cannot do as the standard is now. But it's not an issue to modify the reader to allow hyphen's via a dictionary without modifying any of the functionality.
