problem with fonts after firmware update on Cybook Gen3

Hello,

I was using the "External CSS field" option to include fonts that are installed in the cybook on my epub documents. This is explained in this thread

https://www.mobileread.com/forums/showthread.php?t=61587

This is the kind of entry I include on my documents:

@font-face {
font-style: normal;
font-family: 'Liberation', serif, sans-serif;
font-weight: bold;
src: url(res:///mnt/fat/Fonts/LiberationSerif-Bold.ttf);
}

Just recently I decided to update the firmware to 2.0, and now the correct fonts are no longer displayed. This has rendered some of my documents confusing (I am lucky to only need western fonts, but I am using different fonts to distinguish notes from the main text).

Does anyone have any idea why this has stopped working? I wanted to avoid using embedded fonts on my documents because it increases the size of the file significantly (and is also a lot of work to start embedding fonts in all my books...).

I checked that in the file system/.fonts.cache-1 and the fonts seem to be still on the same directory: /mnt/fat/Fonts/, just like stated in the css entry. So this is quite mysterious.

Thanks for any feedback,

C. Martins
