Ed,

I have seen this problem, although not often. I did, though, have it with one specific text I bought: Tony Hecht's collected later poems. It wasn't really bad, I could always figure it out, but it was distracting...

Then I found a free program called Calibre http://calibre-ebook.com/

I was using it to convert some files to kindle-friendly format. Figured I may as well open the recalcitrant text in it. So I did, and then resaved it. Worked like a dream. It solved every issue I had with poetry on the kindle.

I've now got an anthology on there it would take an entire bookshelf to hold. Fits in the palm of my hand. And, except for the recently written stuff, it was all perfectly free...

Thanks,

Bill
