An example of the first type would be Adobe's ADE and it's derivatives, an example of the second type would be Moon+ and all too many other Android renderers.
Lord almighty, I have a customer that is obsessed about how emdashes followed by text or quotation marks (closing broken-off speech, n'est ca pas?) will break away from the preceding word, in cheapie or free eReaders and will NOT. LET. IT. GO.

Did I tell her, get over MoonReader or the like? Yes. Did I say, this is highly unlikely to happen in Kindles, Fires, Books (in iOS), Nook, et al? Yes.

Has that solved the "problem," NO it has not.

Honestly, I'm on the verge of screaming about it.
