Thanks for your answer.

But... where do I enable that option?

In my first contact with my sister-in-law's PW2, I didn't see that option in the menus. IIRC the configuration menu about reading options just covers full refresh cycle frequency and minor highlight/notes options and the font menu only displays a list of alternate fonts, their possible size and line spacing and margin options.

No, but there's a free converter and a comic reading app for jailbroken Kindles.

I feared something like that... I'm not a heavy pdf or comic reader but I have some of them and I don't want to start meddling in the device firmware/default software...

Well, you need to know some html.

But that trick should perfectly work around a simple <span style="white-space: nowrap;">—word</span> pair which could be rendered separated otherwise because dashes are wrapping points by default at least in all the epub software I know.</p>

Nevertheless you can grab a test book, (or just its code), from this post in Kobo bug thread.

I was asking about it because this trick does not work any more in the RMSDK renderer (epub books) used in Kobo devices. Although it perfectly works in the older RMSDK renderer used in my Sony PRS-650 (and in any other place, BTW. Like Calibre book viewer)
