When I imported an ebook recently the text was filled with & n b s p ; (I had to put space in between otherwise the forum does interpret as a space) rather than spaces. I was able to edit the text box and find/replace, but it would be nice to fix this formatting bug.
I wanted to move from LingQ to Readlang to continue reading the same novel here, but the imported text is filled with — instead of — 
Ok, I searched the forums, and thankfully, I found another thread in which a user suggested converting the EPUB to MOBI and then back again (e.g. using an online converter). It worked! I naturally hope (especially for new users’ sake) the underlying problem will be solved, but this hack took me 1.5 minutes to execute, while I’ll likely spend 30 hours reading my current book, so it matters little to me. 
Could you please share the file(s) that imported with these and — codes and I’ll look into fixing this. Feel free to email me directly: steve@readlang.com

Thanks, Steve! I’ve sent you the file.
Thanks for reporting this and sharing the file with me. It’s now fixed so all such HTML character codes should be converted to the appropriate characters upon import.
