I have sideloaded a few fonts in the Aura, which were working fine in the Bookeen Orizon. Most of them work fine here too, but Minion Pro doesn't want to show the bold (or bold italic).

- I have named the variants "Minion Pro-Bold.otf", "Minion Pro-BoldItalic.otf", etc.

- This is an OTF font, but I have other OTF fonts (like the TeX Gyre families) have no problem.

- I'm testing with sideloaded epubs created by myself, no font embedding.

- The firmware is 3.3.0.

Any suggestion of what could be wrong or how could I make the Aura to use the bold? This is actually the "Caption" variant of the Minion Pro family, which works better at small sizes, could this be the reason?
