If it is truly horrendous it can take me out of the story but it really needs to be bad.
Things like a hard return at the end of every line (from a print version so not even at the end of a sentence). Paragraphs being indented to the middle of the screen. Weird symbols instead of punctuation marks. I rarely see this type of issue but have run across all three in books that were scanned and then improperly proofed and formatted.
Something being not quite centered? I probably won't even notice. Even (infrequent) spelling mistakes I can gloss over.
