Mendesitba--The "USE_ALT_FONTS" hack does not work with the 2nd generation PWS--and I'm pretty sure it won't work with the 1st generation PWs if you've updated the firmware in them.

The best way I've found to use alternate fonts for books on my PW is to embed the font into the book file using Calibre and then transfer the file to my PW. The embedded font becomes the publisher font under the font menu.

If your books have DRM, you'll have to strip that first before you can embed the font.
