I did not much like the looks of IBOOKN, but IBOOKR was an OK high contrast font. FWIW, the same IBOOKR selection also appeared in my V5 running Lbook firmware and looks OK there too. For OI I still prefer the Liberation font, so I went back to it again.
Thanks guys. In the interim since my initial query, I'd settled on the Linux Libertine O font contained already in OI, and using a Bold setting I am now reasonably satisfied. However, Dave, if you would care to provide me rather more specific instructions on how to "extract" the IBOOK fonts, or provide them to me in another manner, I'd be interested in trying them out. I fear that any attempt on my part to go myself into the source file, which I appreciate Bob having provided an entry to, could prove somewhat bewildering to me.
