question
hy everybody. i have two questions for this beautiful and smart community:
1. is it possible that, when powered on, the aura would open the book currently reading with the font of choice, and not georgia?
and 2nd: is it possible to increase the fonts with 1 unit, not 2?
thank you in advance for your time and for your existence. you are all magnificent

My Aura with 2.6.1b firmware remembers the last font I picked and uses it in all epubs that don't embed fonts. All of my books are sideloaded epubs.

Sorry, no idea about the second question.

The steps in the font size changes through the range. It can be one two or four. There isn't a way to change this using the device. But the size is stored in two places.

When you adjust the settings when reading a book, the settings are saved in the database and used whenever that book is opened. The settings are also saved in the configuration file ".kobo/Kobo/Kobo eReader.conf". This becomes the default for books opened in the future.

To get the in-between sizes, you can change the value in the file or the database. If you edit the file, look for look for "readingFontSize". If you are using calibre, my Kobo Utilities plugin can do the database change for you.
