I am publishing chess books, and embedding chess fonts on epub with Sigil works fine, both with TTF and OPF.

However I am publishing on Amazon also, and the conversion to AZW3 with Calibre (last version) only works for very small files, and not in the same way on a previewer or a Kindle Fire. I would say "erratic".

I know it's possible, as recently a book came out, where the size of the pieces follow the font size.

Till now I was using some trick to get a similar result,but this book have a finer appearance, so I go on trying, not very successful.

Can anybody help?
