I wanted to see if they were readable. The system font and text rendering on the Kobo Touch is so light and thin as to be nearly impossible to read. Books are okay because you can select your font, so I use a thick, bold font. But I'm curious as to whether we can select fonts on newsstand items, and if not, whether the text will be readable.
I have tried three trial subscriptions and for all three all that can be changed are font face and font size. The rest of the text formatting options are 'grayed-out' and can't be selected. When I reported this in the Kobo forum, a Kobo rep said that this was because of publisher restrictions.
