- Gil Sans
- Kobo Nickel
- Malabar
- Kobo Tsukushi Mincho
- Kobo UD Kakugo
- OpenDyslexic
The two that work (display stars) are Kobo Tsukushi Mincho and Kobo UD Kakugo. |
I was afraid of that. Those fonts work fine with kepubs, but don't display bold or italic in epubs. My understanding is they are used to support Japanese.
I'm a little surprised that Georgia didn't support them. I put the rating in the comments on the book and that gets displayed as stars in the book details page on the device. I thought this used Georgia, but maybe I am wrong. I'll have a look and see if it's something different in how the two are displayed.

Off topic but since you are pretty heavily involved in the threads regarding FW 4.3.8842 and "new" FW 4.3.8871 while I was checking to see if FW updates added or removed fonts, I just received FW x.x.xx45 (still have the tiled home screen BTW). I can say that the FW update did not change installed fonts.

Yes, there have been two firmware releases today. Font changes in the firmware releases have been very rare.
