test_embedded_font.epub worked perfect because it had an embedded font.
For testing it would be best if somebody could provide us files that make the program crash (preferably some free samples). |

i've done more tests and i think i've figured out how to read Chinese text in the Reader.
txt - the text has to be encoded in UTF8 and "Preformatted text" has to be set to Off.
epub - thanks for your hint, Chinese text will display without problems when "Document embedded styles" is set to off. Unfortunately, the formatting of the page is not perfect - punctuation marks which shouldn't appear in the 1st column such as , . ? ) etc will appear there. but i suppose nothing can be done to fix this problem.
mobi - no problem except the punctuation marks issue mentioned above.
but i've problem reading a particular mobi book, the error message is "Error reading PDB format, can't open document". i've enclosed the book here, could you please see if you know what's wrong with the book. i can read the book in Kindle.
thanks for your great help.
