Hi everyone,

I am having a problem with an epub which includes both Chinese and Vietnamese.

I can sideload fonts to display either Chinese or Vietnamese correctly, but I only find one font (Arial MS Unicode) that supports both Chinese and Vietnamese, and I hate reading in Arial because it's a sans serif.

Is there any way to use two separate fonts for two languages in the same epub file?

I guess that should be done in the epub file itself, i.e. adding some tag to each block of text to specify the font that should be used?

Thanks in advance for your help.
