One of the freedoms Koreader provides is that it allows you to use the font of your choice. On my PW3, I can use the fonts provided by Amazon for the Kindle, the ones provided by Koreader and others that I added myself.

The problem is that it's a bit too much. Though I ordinarily use less than half a dozen, my screen is cluttered by four pages of fonts. See a screenshot for one of these pages. For example I don't even remember using once Helvetica Neue or Futura (though I like Bookerly).

We have no control at all regarding Kindle fonts. Regarding them, is there a way to clean their display? (select some, put away others).

Also, if I suppress some of the Koreader fonts, will I get them back at the next OTA update?
It looks like they are listed alphanumerically, you could try renaming the ones you don't use with a zz at the start of the file name. You might need to change the name in the file's properties, as well. Then they would appear on the last page.

Caution the font's name can be critical to its use, but depending on where the list building is getting the name used for the listing, it could work. You might also be able to order the list with numbers at the start. (Tried adding a 2 in front of one of my fonts and it worked in the Vlasovsoft File Manager but the listing remained the same in KOReader (the font worked also, the 2 in the name had no effect).

Luck;
Ken
