I followed the instructions by FJC@YYZ on the Kobo forum for reading Chinese texts, even though I have an Aluratek Libre Pro. The basic idea was that you add a Chinese font (simsun.ttf) to the main directory of your e-reader. It worked perfectly. Thanks to that FJC's post, I can now read Chinese text files on my Libre Pro.
At least, I think it was thanks to that post. I just replaced my old Libre with a new one and it occurred to me that maybe the newer firmware already contained Chinese fonts. Does anyone know?
I'd like to make sure, because I'm trying to help someone else set up their ereader to read Chinese and I don't want to mislead them. Thanks in advance.
