EPUB is generated with all Cyrillics in place and utf-8 encoding. Device itself have Unicode support and Unicode font installed. But all Cyrillic characters in the book are displayed as ????? It's hard to read this, you know .

Is there anything I missed?
You missed embedding a Cyrillic font into the ePub or on the Reader. You'll then have to edit the CSS so the ePub can use the font(s) be they on the Reader or in the ePub.
