I just returned a Sage as well. Also had font adjustment problems. When going into "Advanced" adjustment mode the "Before" and "After" windows bore absolutely no resemblance to the actual book font, in type or size. This happened when using a custom installed font or a Kobo built-in font. The function was rendered totally useless. This was with the latest firmware. Doing a factory reset fixed nothing.

Not to mention the horrendous battery life. I received it on midday day 1 and fully charged the battery. Very lightly used that day and day 2. Picked it up at bedtime the night of day 2 and the screen had the picture of a dead battery. Ridiculous. My Kobo Aura One is 6/7 years old and the battery easily lasts 1-2 weeks. I bought it from Walmart because they have a free return policy. Glad I did. It came from a third party, Blue Proton, which I have heard may charge a restocking fee. Makes me wonder if they are trying to sell returned items as new hoping new customers will accept e-readers others have judged unacceptable.
