Kindle book default look with embedded fonts
Hi there,

is any chance to make azw3 e-book to appear default look with embedded fonts in Kindle to avoid publisher font manual setting?



Thx in advance,
xtraktor

In order to display embedded fonts, you have to select Publisher Font. That was a very stupid move. When there are embedded fonts, Publisher Font should default to selected and then the user can change that if wanted.

I will agree with Jon on this one.

If fonts are embedded, then use them by default , UNLESS the user setting is Always override, at which time, the selection takes over.

No this is not something that can be controlled in the zaw3 file itself -- it is a function of the reading software.

Try this: open a book with an embeded publisher font, choose a fallback font first then choose the publisher font. Now, if you open a book with a publisher font, it will be the first choice, otherwise the Kindle will use the fallback font.

Not sure, but I think it works like this.

This only works with previously opened books.
With new books won't work.
Thx, anyway.

With a Kindle, there is no way (that I know of) to get the eBook to open showing embedded fonts be default. The eBook will open with a system font being used.
