Yes it's the publishers font. Actually this does not matter, as if I choose any other serif font there that one is used for all text. If a choose a sans-serif font there, that one is used for all text :-(




My Kobo has firmware 4.15.12920. Could there be such a bug in this firmware?

Any other ideas? It is very frustrating that such trivial functionality is not working :-(
One idea is to go read the thread on the latest 4.17.x firmware. You can do a manual upgrade. Yes, there as some gotchas in 4.15 which is why I didn't install it as one of them might have been an issue for me. 4.17. is pretty good.
