I have come across a weird problem with my Sony PRS-350. All the books I have read have been fine but the latest one has a format problem where at one point it throws a page when the page is only half full.

It is an epub generated by Calibre, as are all my other books. When I look at the epub through Calibre it is fine and there are no strange characters inserted which might cause this to happen. I have a second PRS-350 and the same happens on that one so I don't think the reader is faulty.

I have even used the old Sony library to copy the book across just to see if this caused the same error. It did, so it is something within the reader and not Calibre doing this.

I am baffled as to why this should be and just wondered if anyone had come across this. Does anyone have any idea why this might be happening?
