Touch Best image size in epub format for Kobo touch

zztush · 04-26-2013, 10:56 PM

Hi, Kobo touch has 600x800 pix. I have already made many cbz files. 600x600 pix is the best image size in cbz file for my use.

I just checked several image size for best view in epub file.
360x360
480x480
500x500
520x520
540x540
550x550
560x560
580x580
600x600
1200x1200

I think 550x550 is the best view for my kobo touch instead of 600x600 in epub format. Is that right and is there any reason for that?

I put the small epub file for this test. Thank you very much in Advance.

I removed all of the margins of my file. But there are still margins on this file on my kobo touch. Can't we not use full 600 pix width on epub format on kobo touch? I think there are some unremovable margins on epub of kobo touch.

I don't have margin issues with images when margins are set to zero:
@page {margin:0;}
body {margin:0;}
And the image dimensions are the same as the KT screen (1.333) and not smaller than 800×600. Larger images are automatically scaled down by the Kobo Touch.
