Troubleshooting Can someone try this test document?

Barty · 03-08-2019, 05:02 PM

this is a test azw3 I created that only has the phrase the quick brown fox... in four styles, regular, italic, bold, bold italic. It opens fine with calibre viewer, but voyage with 5.10.3 won't open it. I thought it was my custom fonts but removing the fonts folder and rebooting did not do it. Could someone (preferably on 5.10.3) try it out (file attached) and let me knows what happens?

thanks

I tried it on my Oasis 2 running 5.10.3. I manually sideloaded it to the documents directory on the kindle over USB and ejected it. It showed in the home screen and opened fine.

How are side loading the book? I saw another user reported that sideloading via calibre was not working for them.

Thank you for taking the time.

I bypassed Calibre and loaded via USB, old fashioned drag and drop. Didn't work either. The 5.10.x firmware has been troublesome. When I have time, I'll try to do a reset (again!)

I just tried this on my Voyage running 5.10.3, and it worked fine on there.
