Two weeks ago I have bought an ebook on a web store. I have used Adobe Digital Editions to transfer it on my Cybook Opus, the only solution for all DRM ePub and PDF ebooks. But what was my surprise when I started reading the book on my ereader and noticed two ugly oversized left [...]
Great and useful initiative by An American Editor. Since I have started reading my current book I can’t count the number of times I have noticed missing punctuation marks.
