As I have done dozens of times before, I converted to epub to remove the spacing and embedded fonts, reconverted to mobi which resulted in the justification problem. Calibre is doing something in the conversion and I am determined to figure out how to correct it. There must be a solution -- I just don't know what it is.
Then the issue is not the gap being too big. Open the HTML file that contains the non-justfied line(s) and search for the text that didn't justify. Look for any goofy tag at the point where the line broke without justfying. As I recall, calibre wraps everything inside of gosh awful SPAN tags, or something similar, then assigns CSS that is a royal PITA to trace back. It reminds me of the garbage MS Word produces when you convert text to HTML. I never use calibre for converting formats.
