Hi, I have absolutely no idea what code goes into a CSS but the short example for the Arial Black looks like something I should be able to handle in calibre. But I was wondering if the quotes go around the name of the font as in the example? I have tried simply experimenting with different codes using the example as a template but it is rather tedious to shut down calibre, safely remove hardware, check result on reader, open up calibre, reformat book, etc. etc. I done that 5 times and then my PC balked...

I tried to look up CSS codes on the Internet and I am not sure what's the right format for the PocketPro. Also, if I am specifying a bold font such as BOOKOSB.TTF, do I need to put "bold" into the font weight code as well?

Thanks for any hints!
