Yep. I just downloaded it and installed it manually. I'm not sure if that was a good idea, however, as I'm still having the Custom Font crashing issue. If I'm using a custom font in a book and try to open another, it will usually not open. I'll get an error. Usually the Kindles (both the Paperwhite 2 and 8th Generation Basic) will recover from the error (though the book won't open), but sometimes the Kindle freezes and I have to reboot. My workaround is to re-open the book I was reading (which works) and change the font to any of the standard, built-in fonts. I can then go to the Home page and open the book that caused the crash and then change to a custom font. And it will work fine until I close that book and try to open another one. It does this on all custom fonts. These are books bought and downloaded (via WiFi) from Amazon.
