1. Convert your text into well formed HTML
2. Place Liberation Serif fonts into same folder where HTML resides
3. Add this to the HTML after the title tag :
Code:
<style type="text/css">
@font-face { font-family: "Liberation Serif"; font-style: normal; font-weight: normal; src: url(LiberationSerif-Regular.ttf) }
@font-face { font-family: "Liberation Serif"; font-style: normal; font-weight: bold; src: url(LiberationSerif-Bold.ttf) }
@font-face { font-family: "Liberation Serif"; font-style: italic; font-weight: normal; src: url(LiberationSerif-Italic.ttf) }
@font-face { font-family: "Liberation Serif"; font-style: italic; font-weight: bold; src: url(LiberationSerif-BoldItalic.ttf) }
body {font-family: "Liberation Serif",serif}
</style>
4. Import this HTML as new book into calibre and configure metadata.
5. Convert to EPUB and you will end up with e-book with embedded fonts.
Here is an example of e-book I generated using this procedure - Alice in wonderland |
Is there a way you can do that in kindle 3?
I tried converting ePub book to MOBI format in order to let my kindle support it, but since it was an Arabic book kindle showed squares and question marks instead of regular letters.
