Since I have no idea how to take a screenshot from an eReader (is it even possible?), I just edited/photshoped my Calibre "normal view" so it matches with what I see on my Kobo. It's a bit barbaric but trust me, it's 100% accurate.



I gave it a new try today, same process, same book but this time with Calibre 3.40.1 and with this version, it FINALLY gives me the wanted outcome. So there is definitely something in Calibre 3.41.3 and 3.42.0 who prevents Kobo Books from behaving like it should.

I checked the recent patchnotes and have found this part in 3.42.0 :
"Fix a regression in the previous release (3.41.3) that caused the conversion of HTML to text in comments when [...] converting downloaded metadata to behave slightly differently."

I don't know if this is related or if it matters. You judge.
Welp, I think I did all I could here.
