Getting a good picture of a screen, especially with a mediocre smartphone camera, is not easy in my case. So I'll just list my settings and usage via text:

Paperwhite 3, firmware 5.9.4
---
Portrait orientation
Fully justified text
Minimum margins
Minimum line spacing
First line of paragraph: Indented
Extra space between paragraphs: None
Caecilia Condensed font
Font size: 6 (subject to change depending on how tired my eyes are)
Font boldness: 3
Bottom left shows: Time left in chapter
Bottom right shows: Percentage of book completed
Top shows: Nothing (no clock, etc.)
Daytime reading: Illumination turned off completely
Nightime dark area reading: Illumination set to 13 on a scale of 0 to 24
Airplane mode: 100% of the time, never goes online, sideload only
In transport: Inside protective neoprene case, screen against hard cased small tablet
In use: Naked device, no cover

Pretty much everybodys screenshots of their display look mostly identical. Except for @305869 - the font or the boldness or something there looks a little different to my eye.
is "Extra space between paragraphs: None" something you can configure on Kindle?

No. You can in some Android apps; for the Kindle or Kobo, you need to edit the css/html. Unless you use KOReader, I think (don't use it myself, so I'm not sure).

That is a Kobo Plus book and I'm not enthused about removing DRM to edit it.

Here's an epub image.

What font is that?

Here is how I like to read. The font used is ChareInk6SP. It's ChareInk6 with a smaller space. The weight was upped using my Kobo. ChareInk6 and variations can be downloaded from https://www.mobileread.com/forums/sh...d.php?t=184056

The left/right margins and line-height can be adjusted with sliders on my Kobo to make them larger or smaller as you like.

What book are you reading that has a character named Murgatroyd?

Now I'm thinking of the flamboyant pink cougar Snagglepuss and one of his catchphrases "heavens to Murgatroyd, even!"

The book in question is Eversion by Alastair Reynolds.

Here is a list of Murgatroyd in books. https://www.google.co.uk/search?tbm=...2Murgatroyd%22

I like what I can see of the red case. I have navy blue cases on everything (except my Kindle which has a red fabric case).

Yes! I thought the same thing. The book is "Eversion" by Alastair Reynolds.

Here are my settings on my Kobo Libra H2O. This is a Kobo Plus book, and it has left justification, which I prefer. It’s interesting that your Kobo Plus book doesn’t have it, DNSB. I guess it must depend on the publisher.

Not sure why the pictures are not showing up on the website but show up fine in Tapatalk. I'll reupload later tonight when I'm at home.
