(PS-- you can also copy glyphs from one font to another with this app)


I have done this many times, but of course, I am a hobbyist, and not using KDP.
Granny:

That would not be a great solution for KDP, as the KF7's can't display embedded fonts, and equally, many KF8 devices (the Paperwhite family) allow the total overriding of embedded fonts, so that the font glyphs would not work at all.
