You asked what else a user might want to change, people with vision problem might want to set the default text even larger. Medium/X-Large is a big as you can go. (XX-Large is no bigger). I occasionally do other things but I am not sure they will be accepted by BD. Got to experiment a bit one of these days.

I couldn't make the 'reload book' shortcut work. How did you do this exactly? I like your way better.

By the way, I just finished version 5 of mobi2imp and will post it shortly. Now that I am able to compile it into a windows executable, I thought I should allow more options to be selected as switches on the command-line.

In line with your request, I now allow you to change the text one font size larger ('medium') and one font size smaller (back to 'x-small'). Also, per JSWolf's request, you can now change margins from the default (2%) to largemargins (5%), hugemargins (8%) and even nomargins (0%)! In addition, you can change the default text-align from justify to nojustify (left aligned).

Oh yeah, I saw Kovidgoyal's recent post about 'mobi2oeb' and realized that I had that code already in 'mobi2imp', but just commented out. I now allow the output to be 1150 .IMP, 1200 .IMP, 1100 .rb and .oeb (any and all at once!)

Any other thoughts?

p.s. Next, I would like to implement 'lit2imp' and finish my batch convert of the Blackmask DVD v1 into all output formats listed above. Basically, this is 'zip2imp' (over 10,000 of them).

Also, I finally got PDFRead v1.7 to convert up to 65536 color for the REB 1200, but couldn't compile the python code error-free, so that too is on my list...
