It was unclear (to me) that I had to initialize each font, one by one, and then apply the "Restart framework", but the older you get, the wiser you become.
I just hope that you initialized all of them one after the other (yes, this is required), then afterwards rebuilt the cache once, then restarted the device once?
(README.txt has a few notes about batch installs)

ixtab I owe you a beer!
Well, it just so happens that I have one in my fridge, which I'll take... Unfortunately nobody managed to implement a beer bottle teleporter in the forum yet, so... just use the Karma button below my nickname - thanks!
