Embed your own - Everything displayed correctly as long as you choose the right fonts for your language.

If anyone comes up with some bright ideas I'd love to hear them.
Interesting. Well, if the font variants are there, I'm glad of it! I had seen that passage in the manual and wondered! Went through a bit of hassle trying to get my Nook to display a bold font in Amasis, only to later Google it and find out that they hadn't included the variant, so I thought Sony might've done the same thing. But I wonder why it is a lottery then?
