I'm not even sure how to describe this. It's not a major issue but is really annoying.

Any book title, description, etc.. basically any text field if it imports a word with an Apostrophe in it such as "Queen's, didn't, Galaxy's" looks like this "Queen' s, didn' t, Galaxy' s"

When you manually correct it and delete the space between the apostrophe and the s it deletes both the apostrophe and the space as if they are seen as one character.

I just updated to calibre 4.4 and am on Ubuntu 19.10.

Just want to say that other than a couple times of the years for similar very small stuff calibre has been one of the smoothest running just works pieces of software that I have used. I have been running the same calibre installation for the last 9 years or so upgraded regularly as upgrades come out. Most of my issues early on were performance related and faster hardware, mostly faster IO, fixed all that.
