Thanks, Kovid. But I think there was something else: I downloaded the latest 1.12.0 version this morning without having checked your answer, and search did work again, without unchecking the hyphenation option!

I think this was due to lack of highlighting, not search. I don't use the reader very often, only to check books I've just built, so I may have not noticed the words I was seeking were in the displayed page but not highlighted in yellow.

Maybe there was a bug in the yellow highlighting function on the 64-bit version, as everything was OK with the 32-bit one, and someone fixed the 64-bit yesterday.

Two days after I reported this, it is fixed! It was the same when I reported a bug in the Kobo driver: fixed within less than two days. I wish the Kobo firmware would be maintained by such good programmers as those of Calibre!
