Yeah, I agree; surprisingly, the sample is fine (apparently, NOT a font issue, fortuitously)...gotta be the encoding. @DiapDealer--I suspect the "annoying grey background" is deliberate emphasis for the reading apps, although obviously it's not visible in the device itself.

We had a weirdo issue having to do with a download mechanism, but that was an html issue, not a sample or made-book issue, in which we were getting improperly encoded html from a browser DL...but I can't see how that could possibly apply. @Kivgaen--did you use any of the Calibre encoding options? Either the Input char. encoding, or transliteration encoding?

Honestly, other than something weird in Vista (boy, THAT was tautologic), I can't imagine what it could be, if it's not font-related, which it seems not to be.
