No, I downloaded
Mahabharata from github and it shows ????? - the same as my book.

I don't have the /koreader/fonts/ directory. Should I create it?
There is another thing I forgot to mention. I have this issue with KOReader on my android phone. I also have Boox e-book reader (also android) and the book shows correct characters on it. I looked (with file explorer) into koreader folder (in the Boox e-book reader) and didn't find the fonts directory there either.
While the book works on the Boox e-book reader, I usually opened it on my phone, when I was in restaurant waiting for food or show it somebody to ask something. Boox E-book reader is starting just painfully slow so it's not so useful.
