Happy New Year.

I installed duokan on both a K3 and a DXG (12/31/2010, no jailbreak etc.). The fonts that come with the system are different on either, interestingly enough, but neither look good for English text.

I tried to add fonts taken from the fonthack following ideas others have posted (put into DK_System/system/fonts, only use ttf). However, the fonts do not show up as available.

Actually, on my kindle there was no DK_System/system/fonts directory, so I just created one.

Any ideas how to get the fonts to show up? Somebody earlier mentioned that fonts might be limited to 7 only. This seems to match the number of those already installed, but how can I remove these or replace with my new ones?

Hints are appreciated...
