When downloading from Google Fonts, don't forget to check the boxes for all 4 (italic and bold).
In your photos, is that the default spacing between the lines?

@JSWolf: Not sure. When I go to the "AA" settings, I have the Line Spacing slider right in the middle of the slider line.

OK, then it's a Kobo setting and not how the font really is. Thanks.

I haven't felt the need to install any fonts because the built-in Rockwell font is pretty much perfect.

@JSWolf: I've since adjusted my settings. Line spacing is tighter, and font size smaller than what is shown in my pics in this thread. Still lovely-looking and very legible, but now I turn the page less frequently.
