The heavier weight is closer to a bold, and I am not sure I'm fond of it, though it seems to handle complex glyphs remarkably well like 龜. I think you'll agree they are far cleaner and clearer than pretty much any Ming font on e-ink can be...and they (so far) seem very readable, not just legible.
I haven't had a chance to look at it on my reader yet... but it certainly looks like it will be considerably more readable.

It also looks a lot better than the texts I uploaded... for reasons I have not yet managed to fully discern. Care to give your opinion?

Is the problem with mine perhaps the quality (or perhaps just the frequency) of punctuation? Or is it too sparsely spaced?

What did you use to make your file, LDBoblo?
