Good to know - I've updated the description (which will go on the first page when I release it).

As for a way to verify the Kindle framework won't die horribly on a specific font, welcome to the club . I don't even fully understand *why* it breaks, because the exact same font will work fine on a Kindle, and break horribly on another one, with the exact same FW.

I'll let others find the fonts that work
Took a little digging around to find some, so I have no issue linking to free ones if people find good ones.
Its a shame the Kindle forces you to use alt as the name, though it was easy enough to code around it. I just picked copying all the fonts to the Kindle to have a simple place for the Kindle to find them. I could have easily used a subdirectory for each font, or allowed you to pick another directory on your PC to use as the font source (to save room on the Kindle) but all in one was simpler to start with.
Have to restart (well fast framework reboot
) between tests was annoying - especially when I usually forgot to go the Home screen before connecting.
Now if only someone can identify what those unknown settings are for... I'm guessing there aren't more or you would have listed them in your post.
