To make things clearer I'll attach example pictures of the correct display from the Calibre Ebook Viewer and a photo of the same part on my Tolino.

I tried using different fonts (ChareInk, for example), thinking this must simply be a problem of the fonts missing certain unicode characters. Sadly this didn't fix the problem.

Am I even understanding the problem correctly here lol? Does anyone have any other ideas on how to fix this?
Thanks in advance for any help!
I would suggest installing Code2000 as a font and see if the special characters display correctly with it. It's not the prettiest font but it does have excellent glyph coverage.
