title_body: Alternative to Kobo to solve line wrapping problem
upvoted_answer: I also own a Kobo ereader.
  
  From what I can see, the rather messy output that you get is probably caused by a badly formatted ebook file, being it .pdf or .epub. It is just a supposition, but I really think that this layout is not your ereader fault. If this is really the case, there is not much you can do about it, other than trying to find a better version of the file. 
  
  You can do a quick test by downloading a properly formatted ebook file (i.e. this freely available version of Dracula) and seeing if you keep having this problem.
  
  Ereaders are mainly intended to be used with reflowable text ebook formats, like .azw for Amazon Kindle and .epub for the rest of the world; when acquired from legitimate sources, they are usually properly formatted.
  Even if ereaders support the .pdf format, it is mainly for the sake of completeness, it is a format mainly used for fixed layout pages and is not really suited to be read from a small screen; whenever you can you should rely on the above-mentioned formats.
