Hi, I have a Jailbroken KV. I was on the first JB method. Decided to update to Amazon's latest software. First I did the dummy test, and had to install an updated hotfix. Then I sideloaded the update to 5.8.7 for the Voyage. After that, I had to update KUAL. When running the Fonts, I could never get it to populate the Custom fields. I did play around with changing some fonts. It occurred to me to update the python and/or linkfont bins. Studying the readme, I followed the steps, however, I am sorry to say, the readme does not expressly say to put the bin files in the MrPi folder, it says put in the root. So, it didn't work, until I noticed someone in a thread mention putting them in the MrPi folder. So I respectfully request the ReadMe files to be updated with a clarification - (*IMPORTANT*: Remember that *on FW >= 5.5.x*, using MRPI is _REQUIRED_ to install custom packages!) *Bin files must be placed in mrpackages folder on device*

After doing that, the packages updated, and the custom fonts populated, and I now have my favorite font again.

HOWEVER---during my fiddling, I had changed the system font (in the library list) to OpenDyslexic...which was so weird. I was able to correct that, however, now the first line in the library list is in italics. I don't think it is supposed to be. For example KUAL is KUAL but the line under it is the way it should be. Can anyone tell me what I should do to change the italics to what it is supposed to be in the library list view? Or is that line supposed to be italicized?

Thanks so much, I so appreciate the hard work you geniuses do!
