Thanks.. I was reading that B&N added a few fonts, but dropped the Georgia font (so they wouldn't have to pay licensing fees anymore) and took out narrow and wide fonts, also in the latest update.

I'm going to see how side loading PDFs and ePubs works via Calibre on the stock nook reader. But if it's a total failure or I hate it I'll consider rooting to install KOReader. My concern will be if I break something to fix something, like if the buttons and color light will still work?

There aren't many videos on YT of anyone rooting nooks, most are 10+ years old. Although I've jailbroken my Kindle, rooting nooks is new. Would be nice to get a modern tutorial and explore what is possible on these newer nooks. I do like many things about the 2023 Nook GL4+, still isn't perfect, but the page turn buttons, form factor and large flush screen are premium for a device I can get for $105.
