Putting the fonts in a ~/fonts/ folder and opening e.g. an .epub document, I see that all fonts are properly recognized and I can select them in the fonts menu. However, only the default fonts that came with the device will actually be displayed. When I select one of my new fonts, the previous default font will remain:
  • Install the fonts above
  • Open an epub
  • Select for example the Adobe Heiti Std default font
  • Switch to Linux Libertine
  • Observe that nothing changed
  • Switch to Adobe Ming Std default font
  • Observe the new changed text
  • Switch to Linux Libertine
  • Observe that it still is Adobe Ming Std

Any ideas what I could be doing wrong? Are you encountering the same problem?
Hi,
