Epub - changing print doco to web doco

Hi, I set up my epub for print by mistake at the start as still learning. Partway through I’ve changed it to a web document and changed the margins to 0.5 in rather than 0.25 in. I can now see blue lines at the top and bottom of each page, sitting inside the red lines top and bottom. Is that ok?

Generally, you would adjust the frame edges (blue) to match the (pink and purple) margins and columns guides.

Some use the Adjust Layout feature to resize the margins which automatically resizes the text frames to match. Adjusting them all page by page is tedious, although an Object Style for the textframes could speed that up.
