Question Capricious fonts?

Okay, I’m at a loss here.

Apparently each and every single one of my epub books is displayed in what I think is Georgia, independently of which font I choose in the menu (tested with both default fonts and sideloaded fonts). Even using the font customization features fail to bring any kind of visible change on screen… The only exception is epub files that contain an embedded font, which display correctly.

The thing is, I know it’s not the books doing this. They used to display fine and obey my choice of fonts before.

Tested:
Firmware 1.9.17 - Sideloaded fonts sometimes fail to display, even when the files are properly named. Default fonts are all okay. Embedded fonts are okay.
Firmware 2.0.0c - Sideloaded fonts often fail to display, even when the files are properly named (they might display fine now and fail to display after the next factory reset, without any change in filename). Default fonts sometimes fail to display. Embedded fonts are okay.
Firmware 2.1.1 - Both sideloaded and default fonts fail to display correctly between one factory reset and the next. Embedded fonts are okay.

Any suggestions?
