Why? How to custom font. I need Chinese fonts.

thanks.
Did the fonts work before the upgrade? If so, I find it a bit odd since I just upgraded one of my niece's Mini to 3.4.1. Her custom fonts are still working after the upgrade.

You might want to check the custom fonts sticky https://www.mobileread.com/forums/sho...d.php?t=204363 for some help.

Basically, there are three items to check.

1. The fonts folder is in the root of the internal storage (the only storage for a Mini and is called "fonts" all in lower case.

2. The font file names must match for the internal font names. Quite a few font file names have no relationship to the internal font name. See the sticky for the font variant naming convention used by Kobo. On a Windows machine, you can use the Windows Font Viewer and check the Font Name line to see what the font file name should be.

3. After adding the fonts, you MUST reset your Mini -- power off/on, pinhole reset -- before trying to use the fonts.

Good luck!
