As 3.16.0 was not released for the H2O, you have a choice of manually installing if from one of the other firmware packages, or waiting for the next release. Kobo don't preannounce any releases, so we don't now when it will be.

Have a look at the second screenshot in this post. The KEPUB hyphenation problem demonstrated in the In the second paragraph of the screenshot sounds like the problem you describe. It has been fixed in firmware 3.16.0.
Unfortunately, 3.16.0 did not fix the Dutch hyphenation completely.

As soon as punctuation is involved, it goes wrong. To demonstrate this, I have made 2 screenshots, both from the same e-book (which is a kepub file, set on Dutch):

Also, for some reason interview gets cut off wrong too, eventough it is an official Dutch word (http://www.vandale.nl/opzoeken?patte....VYGRNfntlBc):

Anyway, isn't 3.16.0 supposed to fix hyphenation when punctuation is involved?
