@TNT_69: Requesting the image in random threads across the forum is only going to annoy people. If the idea is to post in places that you think someone who has an image is likely to see, then your first post was a better bet than the later posts. But, your first post was still in the wrong place. It was a thread devoted to the Kobo WiFi. You have a Kobo Touch 2. As there isn't a thread devoted to image requests for that device, you should have started a new thread. That is far more likely to be seen by someone who can help than posting in other threads.
One question: Have you done a factory reset? |

If the card is a 2GB card, that suggests your Touch is an N905B or N905C. TNT_69 is after a card for the Touch 2. This was only released last year and uses completely different hardware.

Accents
The Kindle shows them okay; found 1 it doesn't show; = w with 2 vertical lines; Kindle just shows it as a 'w'.
So could we have Kobo show a letter sans accent if it doesn't have that letter-accent combination? instead of squares. |

I hope for a Greek language support and hyphenation.
Fortunately, KOReader works very well with greek hyphens. I hope nickel will be support this feature in near future... |

If you load a Greek font on the device, you should be able to use that to read Greek books. For hyphenation, adding a appropriate hyphenation dictionary might get it working. There is some discussion on this here, but I cannot remember if hyphenation dictionaries for other languages work.

Kobo is supporting greek fonts and text languages by default in all of my books. Except some font families, by the way... In that case, I use my own fonts and works very well. My thought is about the interface language. I don't have problems with the English default language that I'm using right now, but I'm really care about the hyphen in my language... I will try to find a way about. I'm some confusing right now, but I will give a try on this. I have the .oxt and .dict file of greek hyphen (from openoffice site) but it won't work with "hyphenate this" in calibre... Something's goes wrong with UTF8... |

1 needs to either save text file as Unicode & use a Greek (7PHK) typeface, or save as HTML with Greek head, then use Unicode 1.

The blame is entirely Kobo's. Last edited by Andrew Ashling; 08-10-2016 at 09:18 PM. |

Actually, it may not be Kobo's fault. Maybe it's the fault of RMDSK using in 3.19.5761 vs RMDSK using in 3.12.0.

I would request a change in Kobo's handling of fontsize on a per book basis. If I understand what is currently supported (as stated by davidfor in a separate thread) the firmware does this:
1) When the fontsize is changed it is written to the book database and to the global config 2) When a book is opened, the fontsize is read from the book database and if it doesn't exist there it is read from the global config I think one additional rule should be added: 1) If the book just opened has to read its fontsize from the global config (per rule 2 above) it should then write this fontsize to the book's database This will insure that every book has a recorded fontsize that the user is happy with. I'm not sure exactly where this functionality lies: the epub & kepub readers or in some global area of the firmware. ps: davidfor -- let me know if I have stated things correctly. |
