Reading MOBI on Kindle is limited to default font, and I'd like to use a custom font.

I find KindleUnpack plugin, and split azw3 and add only epub/kf8 only back to calibre. Yes, this way the plugboard metadata setting works when I connect Kindle by USB, but there are still issues left to figure out:

- {pubdate} only display month-year on Kindle, without date
- such plugboard setting not working for content_server yet, i.e. "Sharing over the net"

Would you kindly elaborate further? thanks.
