Hi all,

The basics of my problem is that when I send books to my Sony Reader 600, the last character of the title or author changes from the letter or number to a box on the device. If I open my device with the sony software, it looks like the last character has been changed to a Chinese character. I have entered most of the title and author information by hand, as I add my books to calibre. Most of my books are text .pdf's. In calibre library it is fine though.

Example:

Author in Calibre: Anne McCaffrey - Acorna 6
Author on reader: Anne McCaffrey - Acorna []

Title in Calibre: Acorna's Rebels
Title on reader: Acorna's Rebel[]

Any ideas how to fix this?
