MobileRead Forums - View Single Post - Libra 2 Struggling to change system UI (Avenir) font to another one with Cyrillic support

I finally figured this out. I should have replaced KBJ-UDKakugoPr6N-M, not Avenir, because it is used as a fallback font for Unicode characters.
Noto Sans (I believe this is the used one) was more than enough for such a replacement, so I used "KBJ-UDKakugoPr6N-M" in "Fixed Fonts.zip" from this post https://www.mobileread.com/forums/sh...7&postcount=11

My final snippet from kobopatch.yaml:

Code:

files: 
    src/adds/fonts/KBJ-UDKakugoPr6N-M.ttf: usr/local/Trolltech/QtEmbedded-4.6.2-arm/lib/fonts/KBJ-UDKakugoPr6N-M.ttf
