Rename Fonts In Kobo.

oren64 · 05-11-2016, 03:05 PM

In FW 3.13.1 there is no Hebrew font in all the Kobo stock fonts, i side-load few Hebrew fonts to my kobo, and it works well.

Kobo set the Hebrew language default font by the first alphabet side-load font,
say i have 3 side-load Hebrew fonts (Bfont, Cfont, Dfont), kobo set the Hebrew language by Bfont, and the TOC, Library, dictionary... will show in Bfont.

I try rename the font in FontForge, by changing the font name to (Afont or 1font) in Info-font and generate a ttf font, but the name didn't change in my kobo.

Is there a way to rename a font?

EDIT: I succeed to rename the font by rename also the family name in Info-font.
