Calibre e-Pub: setting the left-hand padding?

gigasquid · 03-22-2013, 01:54 AM

Hi all,
When looking at an ePub file with Calibre's reader, the text is jammed hard to the left hand border. Is there any way to add some padding (space) between the border and text column?
Many thanks.

If you go to the Viewer's Preferences - General tab - Text layout in paged mode, you can set all the page margins. Please note, you may need to click the scroll icon (top right corner) to switch to 'paged mode' rather than 'flow mode' to see them.
