I'm sorry for the confusion due to some mistranslation in particular with the word collection. That's why I finally used «device's shelf» instead. In French it is named Collection.

There was no misunderstanding about the word collection. The problem is that it had nothing to do with the problem you were trying to report. It was a red herring. It was something unrelated to the problem and was distracting from it.

What constitute the save template? I thought it was the title, the author's name and it's sorting version. So changing the other metadata shouldn't influence the file name, right?

The save template can be made up of whatever metadata you want. The default uses the author and title. And hence changes to other metadata won't affect the file name. There have been a couple of changes in the driver that did change the file name. These were mainly to solve issues with certain characters and the over all length. But, it did mean that a book sent before the change had a different file name to that after the change. But, it has been a while since the last change like this.

Other definitions: Sideloading and embedding. I think I mixed them. I'm adding the fonts in the books when I edit in Calibre. Viewing both words in your reply made me understand I am embedding the fonts and not sideloading them.

Yes, sideloading is copying the font files to the device. Embedding will be putting them in the book for use. The advantage of sideloading is that you can use the font for all books. But, it is an all-or-nothing thing. Embedding means you can fine-tune the look of a book, but the file size will be much bigger.

so did your explanation:



can be apply to embedding fonts and still explain why I have to restart/reboot the device to get the good display of the stylesheet. Without that restart, I don't get the good fonts and the display is wrong (like left align instead of center align).

When you embed the font, the device shouldn't need to be restarted. And I've never needed to when sideloading. I don't have that many books to sideload with embedded fonts, so I don't have that much practice with them, but I'm sure you shouldn't need to restart the device.

I don't see that option in my Kobo Glo.

It is an option in the KoboTouch driver that has been there for at least four years. In the recent versions of calibre, it is on the "Metadata, on device & advanced" tab of the driver configuration dialog.
