Yes, you're right. I was working with the Kindle font tweaking plugin. It only changed the font of the latin text, and after several tests, it make the device hang for awhile, so I think I should forget changing the font right now.

Why would you want to shape letters manually when the Kindle rendering engine will do it for you?
IIRC, Persian usually doesn't use diacritics so why go through the hassle of preshaping the letters?

I had a v5 converted mobi file before that does not work on the device, so I though It is better to test plain text file and then go to mobi files. I had to shape the characters to see the plain text in Persian. I will regenerate the mobi file, and as you've said it should be ok.

BTW, did you test my files on your K3, and did they display correctly? If they didn't, you probably transfered them via the Cloud or your FW3.4 update failed. (My test file didn't contain preshaped letters. I.e. preshaping is not required.)

Now I've tested your file and it was ok. As you've said, the publisher font didn't work, and the "alt" font (user font) also didn't work for me.

Fixed layout books are KF8 .mobi files with special markup in them; they're primarily used for comic books and children's books. For more information see the Kindle Publishing Guidelines.

Thanks.
