I ran into the same thing with DejaVu Serif E-Ink font on my Tolino. It turned out that instead of "Regular" my regular font was reading "Book" (internally). Mr.Moe told me how to fix the problem by downloading fonttools and using ttx to save the font in such a way that it can be edited and then run ttx to "remake" (compile?) the ttf font. Worked like a champ for the Tolino. If you want more information look in the LCP Certification thread in the Tolino forum. Looks like fonttools is a Python application, so you should be able to run it in Linux, Windows or on a Mac.

If you want, I can take a look at the font if you'll give me download link (assuming it's a free download).
