worked! but is still buggy
Quote:
So, in other words, it works, but only if you reset to the Droid Arabic fonts after you have the rest of your settings selected. Also, importantly, I converted the epub to fb2 in Calibre, and under fbreader it works the same as the fixed epub, even without having deleted the font family declarations. The fonts in the unfixed epub do not work at all, even with the above provisos. So, go figure! I will see if I can get my non-techy Russian wife to translate this post and put it on the Russian forum, but I am out of town, and it might take a while. If someone else can do it quicker, that would be nice. Reminder: I use PB Pro 602 with FW 2.0.6 I do not dare upgrade to 2.1.1 for now. Last edited by qariwa55; 06-18-2011 at 10:06 AM.

glad it worked in the end - well, kind of worked
As I am already on 2.1.1, I'd like to play around with this, but I haven't been able to find any free EPUB in Arabic to experiment with: have you got any link that I might use? There must be something in the public domain, but all I can find are pdf files. |

Hello,
I have a pocketbook 612. It reads fine for non-vowelled texts (not "mushakkal"), but if they are vowelled, all the letters are separate. Can you help? I don't understand enough of this CSS business. I know the font I want to use is called "traditional Arabic" and the file is named trado.ttf for the regular and tradbdo.ttf for the bold-faced font. Can someone please help? Thanx. |

Works as well with the Pocketbook 626, Touch Lux 2.
Edit epub in Calibre -> remove Style file with *.css extension. Thanks |
