ePub seems to do a much better job with hyphenation and justified text than kepub. Often kepub leaves large gaps between words on justified text. I don't know why Kobo doesn't work on improving kepub layout since it is their own format.

How do Kindles do with hyphenation and justified text? Does it look as good as epub layout looks on my Nook?
