Justified paragraph with a ‶word″ longer than 1 line

[Alan]

In a new book I am entering into my computer to covert to ePub for reading on my Kobo eReader I have multiple justified first line indent paragraphs that have a made-up word longer than the page text width. the word is the word babble repeated without spaces between ‶babble″s. I tried using the Zero Width Space (^x200B) between ‶babble″s to see if the line would be justified but that did not work, the line broke at the ZWS and was shorter than the text width. I tried a couple of other non-joining zero width spaces with worse results. At this point the only thing I can think to do is in the RTF file expand the inter character space of the made-up word till it looks like it ends at the right margin when breaking across lines. If I do this what does the ePub do to this paragraph? Is there some way to get Atlantis to justify the line where this made-up word breaks across lines?

Justified paragraph alignment may change the width of only ordinary or nonbreaking space characters (#32 and #160).

You can insert ordinary space characters after each letter in your long word and format these space characters with the smallest font size (1pt) - see the attached sample document file. Looks OK in Adobe Digital Editions when saved as EPUB:
