Fonts copied to internal onboard memory don't show up.
I also learned that the embedded Kobo font 'Times New Roman' is still in the internal memory but is also not shown as an installed font. This font was present on earlier firmware versions but later removed or more likely deactivated. Same for 'Delima'.
Installing TNR as a sideloaded font works, but doesn't give access to the TyeGenius font settings.
