However, all the styles show when I'm choosing a font when using the reader. This isn't normal; usually only the main font name shows. I think this means they're acting like different fonts.
It irritates if things which should be in italic don't show in italic. This has happened with other fonts.
I've tried with a page I know has a couple of words in italics; everything shows as regular.
Is there anything I can do about this?
Thanks lots in anticipation.  |
I think you are correct that Kindle is not seeing these as a single font family. I think you’d need to use a font tool of some sort to fix this.
It is not something I’ve been motivated to do: I just try a different font, there are so many available that work as is, for example at fonts.google.com.
