Change your output profile in page layout to tablet.

That's what it's set at already. Any specific resolution to set in the comic options? (Also sorry I forgot to mention that)

Since all the images in your epub have been scaled to have a width under 700px either you dont have your output profile set to tablet or you have set override image size in the Comic Input options.

I'll double check those and run it through again, I'll be back shortly with results.

EDIT: even with the output at tablet and no override, it still ends up looking about the same, like this. Should I change the default input? It's still set to default on account of there being no tablet option for it.

Then presumably your input file only have images that are 720px wide.

The input profile is not used for anything in comic conversion.

In any case, I am not spending more time trying to guess your problem, from incomplete information, see: https://www.mobileread.com/forums/sho...d.php?t=186697

Fair enough, thanks nonetheless.

@hking0036 - why not use a dedicated comic book reader, or a reader that can read EPUB and CBZ such as Moon+.

I had a look at the attached sample epub, and it is perfect.

The image inside is 1988 x 3056 pixels, and there are no margins.

I don't have google Play books, which I presume is where you are getting those screen shots from, but whatever problem you are trying to express is one of how your reader is displaying images.

You can try editing the book and remove the height: auto;
width: auto; properties from the .calibre2 element in the CSS, see if you prefer how playbook then displays the epub.
