Another thing - when you read an EPUB, it converts it to HTML (or XML), I suggest you open that up (it's in the DK_MDB folder or w/e) and look at it, see if it states the encoding (it might even be UTF-8 - that would be bad i think) and see if the text looks alright in the converted html document. If it looks bad in the converted document, well then that's part of the problem

Also locales are only responsible for date/time/currency format, it would not have any effect on text rendering. i don't even know why they make an entry for it.
