I loaded a couple of fonts into the proper folder once they made that an option without any fiddling on amazon's end. Is that considered a custom font? I have no clue. I got them from here, one is a dejavu and the other one JWolf posted about. Are you saying its adding fonts that causes that? But then why would they add this as an option to the device. When I have some time over the next few days I'll play with it. I read using dejavu mostly, but also the basic bookerly that comes preloaded. But on my Oasis1, pretty sure I always use the bookerly.
eta: Well I'll be darned. If I change the font to bookerly in a book, before I go home and open one of the docs or sideloaded files, I can now open them. I test it and went back to the book, changed it back to dejavu and tried open the same doc and my Oasis2 locked up same as before with that popup after like 2 minutes saying I need to download again if I bought the book from amazon. So the issue is with the sideloaded fonts. At least for me it is. Maybe I just need to get used to bookerly again to not have to deal with all this. I do like dejavu on my Oasis in particular.
Here I thought it was save to do that as they put that in as an option after an update. I never did nor have any interest in hacking or otherwise fiddle with my kindles outside of what Amazon gives me.
Well thanks Barty, at least you found my issue and I guess its "fixed" as long as I stay with factory loaded fonts.
