Please note that, contrary to the behaviour you described, and even using a grotesquely large font, Kindle for iOS, if there are at least two words in a line, will always right-justify:

We can call the software Kindle's behaviour a bug, or we can call the hardware version's behaviour a bug. Or we can say simply that they behave different because internally they use different layout engines.
My point is that Amazon publicized the new layout engine as a cross-device uniform improvement, which seems not to be the case, at least in this little issue.
Thanks for you feedback. |
Do note that while KFX (Enhanced Typesetting) is a general improvement to current devices, it is applied in the ebook files.
The rendering engines of the various devices are developed by different teams, who at times demonstrate quite clearly that they have no contact with each other. You can't really compare them.
Amazon seems to be okay with reinventing the rendering engine wheel for each device.
Things are inconsistent.
As for this Enhanced Typesetting book, was it downloaded to your device as a *.kfx file?
Amazon is not always 100% accurate when listing on the product page if a book has page numbers/enhanced typesetting/whatever.
