There's a few patches not working for me on a Glo HD, and with all the changes and renames, I'm sure I'm doing something wrong, but haven't been able to figure out where the problem is.

I can't seem to change the page number font back to Georgia as I had it under 4.12.12111 (the firmware I've updated from). I've changed books, flipped over a chapter marker to trigger refresh, shut down and back on, but page numbers are still in Avenir font.

The advanced font control also is not working at all on any font, not even Kobo's default fonts.

The bottom menu doesn't seem to get reduced in size (assuming I'm using the correct patch), it's a full inch in height.

These are the patches I've enabled, maybe I have 2 that shouldn't be used together, or missed something I do need to add for the above to work:

Spoiler:

And in nickel.yaml, under "Custom new header/footer font:" I changed line 332 to read:

Spoiler:

What am I doing wrong or missing?
