Merhaba Gerge, and thanks. ;-)
One reason for my asking is that I've been formatting an ePub using Gentium Book (another SIL typeface) as the main body font; it looks fine on my Aura HD (3.12.1) at various sizes, but on my Kobo Touch (3.11.0) the Italic variant looks horribly mangled at any size I've tried. No doubt a major contributor to this is the pixel density of the screen (168 vs 265), but the same font renders fine in any of my desktop apps at normal PC screen resolution -- hence my questioning of hinting.
If anyone has any suggestions on resolving this -- or even suggestions of a similar typeface that renders better on a Touch or Glow level of display -- then I'd be grateful to hear of them.
