At any rate, it has no effect in either the Android or the iOS apps. In the Android app, if an embedded font exists in the personal doc then that font is displayed regardless of how you set the Turn On/Off Publisher Font option. In the iOS app, even if an embedded font exists in the personal doc that font is never displayed regardless of how you set the Turn On/Off Publisher Font option. The Turn On/Off Publisher Font option is a major FAIL in both apps as it provides absolutely no control whatever!  |
This is only true if the font is set in each styles it will show regardless. This isn't Amazon fault but the publisher who incorrectly coded the book. With the new updates each book now works like they do on eINK Kindles. You set the font in the main body style and you can turn it on or off at will. So books finally work correctly on the New Kindle Fires and the Android app. The Old Kindle Fires still have to do it the old way to get it to work.
You no longer have to put font-family in every style just the main style if you own this year's Kindle Fires or use Kindle For Android.
