OK, I'm not too good at this. I'm editing an e-book of "The Hobbit", and I'm wanting to fix up a couple spots that use the "moon runes". Right now the book just uses JPEG files for the runes, and it's ugly.

So I downloaded a TrueType font from someplace that has the runes as characters. I installed the font on my Windows PC and I can use it in Microsoft Word, for example.

But when I use the Calibre Editor, how can I access that font to type rune characters into the text? I'm lost here.

Any help?
