I haven't seen anyone else report a problem with the new fonts though, and it is easy enough for me to avoid the problem just by not using them. (Edit: I see now a few others with Touch/Glo are reporting problems with the Kobo Tsukushi Mincho font.)
This was about the new introduced font problem.
I tried it at my wifes unpatched Glo and I see the same behave..the problem is that she likes it to play with the fonts, avoiding pressing on it is offcourse the most simple,but I discovered twice that when you pick up a font near it and place your finger (s) wrong you still select it.
I don't know if it is difficult to patch it this way that it is simple not showing up on the drop down list (so you can't select it) and/or how long Kobo will send this update or replaces it by a new fixed one, so your precious time would be "spoiled" but I am afraid that we soon get the problem again if Kobo chooses to change it again... Maybe extract the old fonts from 3.17.3 is possible and just simple rename them to the new ones,or only the faulty one, and replace the new ones by the old ones that are renamed solves it ?? (I am not a programmer so excuse me if I put out rubbisch now.. )
