The book I am trying to fix is The Martian by Andy Weir. The problem is that the embedded fonts are some sort of free serif, freemono, and freesans. They are way too light for eInk and I did replace the main font and that worked fine. The sans-serif font is tolerable but the default sans-serif font is better. The mono font is lousy. It's very light. When using an external light source, I can read it. But using the front light, it's barely readable. Dark Courier is so much better.

I tried monospace with a div and that did not work. I tried the patch that jackie_w posted and that did not work. I'm beginning to think there is no monospace font.
