Glo Adding fonts

BobC · 01-18-2013, 06:36 AM

I have added a font to my Glo - Liberation Serif. I've used this font on a Hanlin V3 and like it, hence the addition to my Glo.

The group of fonts I've added are named:

libser.ttf
libserbd.ttf
libserbi.ttf
libseri.ttf

While I can change my books to use the font, for some reason the italic variant isn't displaying properly but just as the normal font.

I'm guessing this is due to the naming of the font files - the one's I've used are ones that work on the Hanlin using OpenInkpot but I can't locate any information on the file naming convention used by the Kobo.

Any pointers would be appreciated.

I think if you read through this thread you will know everything you need to know.

In particular #46 of that thread.

I thought I had worked my way through that one previously without finding the answer. However having re-read it all I found the info I needed in post #78.

Thanks BobC
