An update about this issue I posted ages ago about
ACCESS adding extra gap around dashes and other punctuation marks when justifying text (when, therefore, you need to stretch the spaces between words).
So
Code:
This text—with a comment—will suffer it.
was converted into
Code:
This text — with a comment — will suffer it.
instead of the correct
Code:
This text—with a comment—will suffer it.
Some firmwares ago (I'm in 3.11) this behaviour changed and it was converted into
Code:
This text— with a comment— will suffer it.
Look how the "before" extra gap has been removed. So it seems like a partial fix.
And it is, but
the new problem is that Kobo has broken the justification along the way.
Look at the attached screenshot. When that situation happens the text is not correctly justified. I really seems as if the line length is calculated with the old behaviour ("before" and "after" gaps) but as the "before" gap doesn't happen any more, your line is shorter than it should.
