Since I'm currently planning to retire patches 2 & 3 at the next fw upgrade you'd be choosing between 1 & 4 in future. P.S. In case you haven't already noticed, I added a couple of screenshots to my earlier post to show the effect of setting word-spacing: -0.05em in a kepub. Here's a beta for the proposed new patch. It should work in fw 4.32.19501 (with the above caveat). Just copy it into your existing libnickel.so.1.0.0.yaml file and enable it in the normal way. Spoiler:

As I understand it I’d still be able to use both the config file and the proposed word spacing patch. With the understanding that the results I get might not be quite the same as if I were using just the word spacing patch. |

You won't need to lose your kepub ligatures. We now have a new option for the Kobo config file.
The discussion started in the main fw 4.32.19501 thread (post #308) about a week ago but I summarised here in the main kobopatch thread. Last edited by jackie_w; 04-30-2022 at 04:13 PM. Reason: Added details summary link |

Added the beta patch, a quick comparison for a full page of text before and after shows I've gained about two lines of text. Which is by no means a small feat considering all the other efforts I've made to cram as much text at a comfortable reading setting onto a screen.
Interestingly the space between words doesn't appear drastically changed, obviously it has changed since two lines of text don't just decided "welp I've had enough of being on this page I think I'll go join my mates on an earlier page" and run off to do so. I'll settle in to do some reading today to see if I find any issues. |

Is there any way to create a patch to fix the bug where you can get part of the first line of the next page on the bottom of the current page?

I might actually take a look at Literata Books line spacing and see if it’s done properly, I suspect it is thought I’d also have thought Bookerly would have been as well. I’d look at Charink but I trust Jon is fastidious enough to have set them correctly. I also didn’t notice this being an issue with my settings for charink. |
