Unfortunately, that doesn't mean anything. Kindle Previewer uses the Webkit engine and behaves like a web browser.

Unfortunately, the text displays as garbage in Unicode viewers, because it's not Unicode encoded.

I'm afraid that won't be possible because of a bug in the Kindle rendering engine. I just did a quick test with a Unicode version and an
Unicode font and noticed the same issue even though I embedded a Unicode font (the default code2000 fallback font behaves the same). Apparently the rendering engine cannot handle Cyrillic letters followed by the Unicode character
U+0484 COMBINING CYRILLIC PALATALIZATION and adds a space after it.
For example, the second word in the first line, канѡ҄на (kanyona?), contains U+0461 (omega) followed by U+0484 (palatalization), which the Kindle cannot handle.
