Wow. That's... special. I could understand the problems with the quotes or dashes, if the book's doing something strange like requesting high-Unicode versions of those characters that aren't supported by your device (haven't looked at the source file for your book, naturally, so I don't know if that applies ).

But missing periods? That takes talent.
