Another difference I have noticed between 3.48 and calibre 4 beta is in display of non-embedded fonts. The attached image shows 3.48/3.99.5 on the left/right respectively.
The fancy dropcap is coded with this in the CSS:
Code:
font-family: "FZScript14", "FZ", serif;
As I already mentioned, this font is not embedded. My Kobos and Android readers are happy to find it in their custom fonts directories.
As you can see this also used to be true for the calibre Viewer. I copied FZScript14.ttf into my calibre config fonts directory and all worked fine.
I see the same difference (not a surprise) between versions in the calibre Editor.
I know this is only cosmetic, but it was nice-to-have. Is there any plan, or possibility, of this ever working in calibre 4?
