Question Total non-techie needs help with foreign language fonts!

So I've got my prs-t1 and love it. Most of the books I read are in English, but sometimes I also read in Polish. I've got many books in .txt format and I have absolutely positively no idea how to even go about installing a font. I've read what I can here, but it seems to be in fluent gibberish for me

Could someone please please help me in a 'step by step installing fonts for total non-techie dummies' type of way? I've managed to get some things by myself but this is just beyond me...

would really appreciate some help!

- don't know if this helps, but the books look fine when they're in calibre but the diacritics start going funny when I transfer them onto the prs-t1

ok so if anyone's interested, I somehow managed to do it - I read around, changed the coding in the .txt to utf-8 and in calibre changed the input coding to utf-8 (preferences, common options), so I don't know what did the magic, maybe both, but it worked.
