And hope the user picks Publisher font and isn't using a stupid Android app.

Still, even "ordinary" text on non-Western languages is challenging due to the Western and often US bias of SW development/implementations. The 2007 Kindle release was dreadfully poor and the support was a solved problem 10+ years earlier, yet they persisted with mobi for years. At least some models later got upgrades to azw3.
