Hi all,
I installed the font hack on my Kindle 2i (firmware 2.5) - now I can see the titles and authors in Cyrillic on Home Page, but the body of the books contains nothing but "garbage" (accented and umlauted Roman characters). What am I doing wrong? I take TXT or RTF files and convert them to MOBI via Calibre. Maybe MOBI doesn't do Cyrillic? What format should I use instead?
I am grateful for any ideas - thanks a bunch!
Cheers,
Yuri
