Try this:
From Home, change orientation to landscape, open HUR and see what funny things happen.
1. HUR doesn't occupy all screen and you can still see parts of Home screen.
2. Even you can press Menu button of Home screen and etc.
*3. Pressing on Close Application (item 8) triggers Open book (item 6)... <-- height-wise it user has selected 6!

So in this scenario, user who has enabled landscape from outside, should go to Setting of HUR and change Orientation to landscape, BUT the problem is that because of *3. user can't press Setting, because if [s]he's on page 1 of Setting, clicking > to go to next page changes Font hinting! <--- It was a better idea to enable swipe as a way to go to next/prev page too.

On a more important note, adding support for Perso-Arabic font would be nice.
And by the way, one thing I love about HUR is that for reading books in my mother languages, (where books begin from right to left), prev/next page can be triggered by touching right/left sides of screen! (nice )
