I made the line height metadata in ChareInk smaller so on a Kindle (before KFX) the line space was set to a much more normal size. Then along comes KFX and totally ignores the line spacing metadata of fonts. This is why it's still best to use KF8.

KFX is evil on multiple levels. No DRM free from Amazon.
Slower downloads from Amazon, because it's designed for 14.4 kps Cell or 33 kbps dialup so you can open it while downloading.

Stupid format.

huh. this has been an interesting read. I've been starting to use kfx because it seems the easiest to set as a "personal document" once I had the amazon-decided-to-delete-everything issue when I took it off airplane mode and the theory was (is?) that personal documents got around that "feature".
