Yes, that's the way it is on the Touch, too, which is why I was surprised to be told that it couldn't be changed on the K4.

On my k4nt I can change the line spacing but I've found that even using the 'small spacing' it's still too wide (but readable). Then, when I want to read another non-kf8 book I have to change this again. What a pita this firmware upgrade has been, lol!

This is a bit of a mystery. Why is it that some people with K4s are saying that the line spacing can be changed (just like it can on the Kindle Touch), but others are saying that it can't be changed?

Have you contacted Kindle Customer Service about this? It's not going to change unless people do complain.

Personally I find that the "medium" line spacing setting is fine for every KF8 book I've come across. "Narrow" is way too narrow for me.

I imagine it's the same on a K4 as on a KT - they almost certainly use the same rendering engine.

Well then my guess then it's because the publisher has specified a fixed line spacing in their style sheet. You can do this in epubs and KF8 seems to be similar to that format.

Both of my KF8 books are from the same publisher Harpercollins via Avon Impulse line.

I'll have to explode the book and look at the code.
