You are wonderful that worked. Didn't even know it was there thought I had broken my Kobo !
Not even tried to change the fonts yet as couldn't find the AA.
glad it worked - now with Mrs_Often's pictures I'm sure you'll sort out the font changing, too!

That worked finally thanks
What font do you suggest for an oldie?
Also does it change on all the books I add to the Kobo?

Also is seems it was not such a good idea to do a factory reset.
The Kobo was really slow and freezing and I thought that was the answer ( as that's what I do on the PC)
It got halfway resetting and then just froze. I had to use a paperclip to get it moving again
And then it decided I was Arabic lol
So got to sort my font out now and catch up on my reading
Only putting a few books on at a time to see if that is better.

What do you suggest if it starts freezing again?

My first idea would be to turn it off and on again (a la IT Crowd ). If not enough, try to log out your account and log in again. That one will reset the database

I often use Rockwell since it is rather big and heavy. This effects also the dictionary pop ups.

It does, provided the book doesn't have its own fonts embedded.
