Anyway, everything seems to work as it should. When I synchronized Pocket, it said it would need to download a font for missing glyphs, and it downloaded Noto Serif Devanagari. The article I'd saved then displayed text in Hindi, which seemed to my inexpert eyes be the same as in the original. See screenshot below, and the original page (it was the top news story on BBC Hindi at the time). |
Thanks for posting this example. When I copied a small sample of this Hindi text into my test kepub it also triggered the downloaded Kobo versions of NotoSerifDevanagari-Regular.ttf and NotoSerifDevanagari-Bold.ttf. The fact that my previous sample text of what I *thought* was Hindi did not, confirms my suspicions that I really ought to leave trying to answer Kobo language support questions to others better qualified.
