fixed layout text display on iBooks
I'm working on a fixed layout ebook for iBooks 3.2. I've noticed a funny glitch that occurs when I view the file on the iPad - letter/word spacing seems to adjust when turning the pages. Sometimes it carries words over to the next line and sometimes it just appears to widen the letter spacing slightly.
I've taken a short video to demonstrate – it doesn't pick up the more minute jumps but you can see it happening on screen. Has anyone else encountered this problem? I have introduced forced line breaks in places where words carry over and this seems to work, but I haven't found a solution to stop the letter spacing glitch. Rosa |

If you don't already have an Apple developer account, I would suggest creating one over at developer.apple.com, then file a bug report at bugreport.apple.com. Enclose a copy of the EPUB in question as an attachment.
