Glo Adjusting Margins on Kobo Glo??

kglo · 12-22-2012, 06:27 AM

On some epub ebooks, even though I turn the margins down to zero on my Glo, there is still a margin, like it's hardcoded into the book. Anyone got any tips for me on how to edit the epub so I can turn the margins down to zero?

I guess it's in a css file somewhere. Maybe there's a way using Calibre?

Anyone know??

There is.

In calibre, hit convert book.
In the left navigator, hit "Page setup". A tab will open which has margin values. You can set them all to "no margin", which is one setting below "0 pt"
