H2O - Text justification results in chopped off letters
I received my H20 yesterday and converted my ePubs to KePubs. I've noticed that sometimes justified text is cut off on the right and sometimes it isn't. I've sideloaded a handful of books, and they all have this issue.

If I toggle on/off "Show header and footer" sometimes the problem will correct itself. Or if I return to the homescreen and re-enter the book, the text displays fine.

I'm stumped as to why this is happening. When text isn't justified, it displays fine.

This is a known bug, with no proper fix. It's not the justification, that may just be making it worse, the issue is the 'Show Header Footer' comand. If you tick that and DO show header and footer it shouldn't happen but if it does it's usually because you want more text on the page and leave the show header and footer check box unticked.

Ah, I had a feeling it had to do with the "Show header and footer". As you said, when it is checked (header/footer displays) all is good. I'll keep it unchecked and deal with the unjustified text. Every now and then a letter will be chopped off, but it's not as often as justified text. It may happen every few pages.

I'm enjoying the H20. Love the warm-toned display and the bigger screen.

I'm glad I could help, and that your loving your H20.

Hopefully, one day, that bug will be fixed......

The problem only happens with kepubs, if you load the book as an epub it should work better.

I have the same problem, but I find using epubs makes everything a bit slower. Page turns are slower, highlighting is more problematic. I get this strange slow flashing when I highlight on epubs. This doesn't happen for me when using a kepub of the same book. Has anyone else experienced this?

For whatever reason, Kepubs just run much smoother for me. Since I prefer the way kepubs render visually as well, it's better all around for me.
