Hello all.

I'm using an LBook from 1.27 and now 2.00 firmware and in both firmwares the PDF viewer has a very annoying problem breaking words. For example, a line like:

Cicero Romae educatus, ubi secundum Plutarchum ingeniosissimus praestabat

Appears like

Cicero Ro mae educa tus, ubi secundum Plutarchum ingenios issimus praest abat

It's only a sample in Latin, but it occurs in Spanish and English and breaks my read. I get two or three broken words on each screen.

I've tried to generate PDF with "Word save as PDF", CutePDF, OpenOffice with all possible combinations and effect continues. In my PC, Samsung Q1, Gen3, iLiad same PDF is shown well with no word separation.
