I don't know how to change that unfortunately, I think it is just a problem with the KePub reader. I could increase the internal line spacing in the font, but that would just make it like the Kobo Nickel font, with very wide line spacing in both the ePub and KePub readers. The way it is, at least it works fine in the ePub reader, and those using the KePub reader can increase the spacing to avoid the problem.

Edit: If anyone wants to have a go at fixing that problem, you can try adjusting the HHead ascent offset and/or HHead descent offset in OS/2 > Metrics, I have a feeling the only way to avoid the KePub cut-off problem is to use settings that increase the overall line spacing though -- either the font's internal spacing, or the spacing in the device/book stylesheet.
