When I originally upgraded, I had 29 books on my Kobo Touch, all but two of them were KePubs (this is were I locally store my Sony/Kobo library (such as it is -- now also on Calibre). All KePubs I tested worked fine with the new features. Both of the ePubs had the Constantia font embedded. I also have the Constantia font loaded on the Touch. The one book (longish with lots of footnotes)
The Glories of Mary, is the one failed immediately. It originally came from Amazon (.mobi format) and was converted with Calibre to ePub. The other,
On Fairy Stories, was originally an essay (short, 48 pages once converted to ePub) that I converted from PDF (from PDF to text, to LibreOffice .odt, to ePub via Calibre). This one -- more or less -- worked, although it was slow and would kick me out of the book if I tried changing fonts too many times. After discovering the ePub issues, I loaded
The Hobbit (also moved over from the Kindle from AZW3 format (I think)) on to the Touch, and it failed completely. So then I loaded the patches, ePubs worked and I've added another Kindle -> ePub book (
The Hunger Games Trilogy) and it works without issue. But I think one of the patch choices I made overrides the Publisher's Default, because if I go to Publisher's Default the font doesn't change. Which is fine with me as I always use Constantia anyhow and I've side-loaded the font.
I don't know if any of this helps, or just makes it all more confusing.
