I made a few modifications in FontForge for e-ink:
  • Oldstyle numbers are now the default figures
  • Regular and italic style have been embolded by +25

I also disabled the Qu ligature (imho too fancy for modern literature).
You should post the unweighted versions as well. Also, if you are going to add weight, you should also weight to the bold versions.
