my standard procedure when this happens is to enter special characters that are unlikely to actually occur in the text where the broken were.
In your case for example enter a "¬" for the first half of "w" and a "@" for the second half ..and so on.
When you finished OCRing and saved the file to .srt simply open it in notepad and use the "replace" function and replace all "¬@" by "w" ..and so on.
