Thanks for the font, I rather like it and will use it for awhile and see if it doesn't replace Georgia when I need those special characters. |
Good to hear that it works for you. Charis SIL is good for Latin, Cyrillic and IPA but does not include the full Greek alphabet. With its diacritical support, that is good enough to cover my needs at this time.
Kepub does substitute from other fonts but if you are not using a Kobo supplied font, the results are, as you noticed, not all that pleasant.
