Using Calibre, edit your AZW3 eBooks using Edit Book. Then if there is no body style, add in... Code:
body font-size: 130% } |

I agree 100%. Also the line height is too large as well.

It really is poor that some e-readers don't allow that level of customization. On my Sony, I also had to compile epubs with custom css in Calibre . I got used to it, but it was a primitive way of going about it. I'm surprised Amazon continues not to offer more customization. Weird. It's not like it would cost them anything. Some people have suggested more features would make the device less stable, but I can't see why. Last edited by Rizla; 12-12-2014 at 06:56 PM. |

They are quite different things. One exists, the other doesn't.
Side-loaders (like USB-card users) are a fringe minority of users. If Amazon can find a cheap alternative to charge, it will make no sense to retain the port. |

As a software engineer for 20+ years (professionally, and 30+ as a hobby) I have a lot of experience with such things and it is my experience that whenever you have to make a decission, that's a potential bug -- every decision point is a potential point of error. Now, a lot of bugs can be avoided by good design, but it's also my experience that many (most) software developers write horribly complex code with a lot of special cases and extremely convoluted logic, which grows exponentially more complex with more options. There are very few who can see through the immediately obvious collection of flags, switches, and branches, and come up with an elegant solution that avoids special cases and can treat them all as the same -- especially when adding options to existing implementations that they didn't write. |
