from experience, I have had books where text was cropped off. the last one was a library loan & by a big name author, so professionally formatted ???

using an editor to see the code, to find out why, revealed that it was using a ( unnecessary) table around the preamble to each chapter. long preambles were being cut off when rendered

its more common with game strategy guides which use table cells to describe attributes/ spell properties, armor properties.....
A lazy author may have lifted much of that from web sites with little or no tidying. Those table rows are more likely to get side cropped, or as you say, wrapped into a messy presentation
