Calibre deletes soft Hyphens in Epub ?
I don't know if this is a bug or a feature, or if I just have a setting in calibre wrong.
This is my problem: I got a html file that is full of long words. I want to add hyphonation for this words.
I know their are 3 different codes for soft hyphens: ­ and
Well, I put this codes into different words in the html file. Everything looks good in Firefox. So I converted the html file into an epub file, with Calibre. Strangely, the hyphenations didn't show up on my Bebook.
So I opened the epub (by renaming it to zip) and looked at the html file inside. And to my surprise, all the soft hyphens have been gone. How can this be ? Other html codes like umlauts work fine. So how does it come that the soft hyphenations are gone ? Is there something wrong with Calibre or my settings ? I tried it with and without the "no text justification" setting. (I thought this might solve the problem, but it didn't)
Oh and by the way: I heard that there would be an easier way for hyphenation ? Like a database on your ebook reader where you can enter the words and their correct hyphenations. (I think I heard something like this will come with CSS3 - does the Bebook support this ?)
Thanks for your help
