Embedded fonts on kindle now!
I think I must have blinked and missed something.
Have Amazon deployed a firmware update for the Kindle? I'M SURE that last time I looked embedded fonts didn't work, but now halfway through a project that has fonts on the ePUB version they're showing up on the kindle. There's an option in the font-size menu to turn on or off "publisher fonts" that I know I didn't see before. Hooray for Amazon!! (never thought I'd be saying that). Are there more updates? I think I noticed the line-height change too. Do I DARE to hope that they're close to implementing KF8 on the standard Kindle? |

Aha!
https://www.mobileread.com/forums/sho...d.php?t=190723 oohhhhh.... KF8. I think they've also done something with the way table cells now span better across pages rather than just cut off. I was using that for a kind of keep-together for image captions. Looks like I might be able to do it properly on the Kindle now!! Also... and I need to check, I think that it might affect the media queries. I noticed that I couldn't modify a class when using amzn-mobi but that might just be me. This is all very exciting! |
