Karellen,

Many thanks. I'd found that the 2-em dash, when copied/pasted, generated a control character in the Calibre editor. I didn't look any further, but after your reply, found that the 2e3a Alt-X sequence creates the identical control character in the editor. This time, I bothered to look at the viewer as well, and there was the 2-em dash, plain as day. Oddly, the 3-em dash displays as such in both the editor and viewer (i.e., no control character). I'll report back if there are display problems on my actual eReaders.
