2. The kepub reader can hyphenate in the wrong place if there is trailing punctuation, so with both HYPHENMIN parameters set at 5, everything, could be hyphenated as everyt-hing, by the kepub reader, but the epub reader would still hyphenate it correctly as every-thing,
There is not much that can be done about the second problem, but setting RIGHTHYPHENMIN one higher than LEFTHYPHENMIN can help a bit with the first.
(I use LEFTHYPHENMIN 3, RIGHTHYPHENMIN 4)

Thanks for that bit of information. If I see any issues with hyphenation because of the right set to 2, I'll change it back to 3. But for now, I'll leave it at 2.
