Aha.

Can JS make two font names map to one file?
Files - yes, but font names - nope, very very very unlikely. :S
Maybe simply removing other files would work, reader would fall back to the existing font, could you try it please?

BTW, someone complained that PRSPInstaller is too big to fit in his 16M memory stick
Ahaha. they could remove rootfs and it also works from internal memory anyway.

Quote:
But most lrf would reference to those two fonts.
Just out of curiosity, do they reference more than one at a time?

They can put PRSInstaller into internal memory and flash from there? That's good.

Yes. Since we have two chinese fonts (usually most people don't replace tt0049m_.ttf), many books use one for chapter title, one for chapter content. It looks better than use only one font.

PAGE is replaced with FUNC_PAGE_X for original strings too. Check it (e.g. in All Bookmarks) when next Beta tester pack comes.

German translation of next string is required:
OPTION_SKIP_BOOK_MENU: "Skip Book Menu"
Thanks

I try the All Bookmarks, it works.
looks like "bookname - 第284页 共 1433".

I've updated the SimplifiedChinese.js to translate the "OF" and change to translation of "PART".

You can try to use this application to convert any font in a correct Sony font to use with your reader.

1.1.2 release candidate is out.
Don't forget to remove beta tester's pack (it has higher priority than firmware)

I just updated from 1.0.2 and it went flawlessly. I updated the kbookicons and kbookassets files without problem. I added in a dictionary then converted the dictionary using m-lands tool. I tried both and love the change m-land's tool made in viewing the dictionary file.

Well done and many thanks.

Did you figure this out yet?

I just had this too. When I extracted the zip to the SD card a Universal Flasher folder was the only folder in the root directory. I moved all files and folders in the Universal Flasher directory to the root of the SD card then it worked fine.

I use the follow css to display Chinese charaters in epubs. The first url of each font-face is the internal url of the font, the second one is used to preview epubs in EBookLibrary (Fonts put in the same directory of EBookLibrary executable.

I think this css can also be used by other languages.

Code:
@font-face      { font-family:"title_font";     src:url(res:///opt/sony/ebook/FONT/tt0003m_.ttf), url(res:///tt0003m_.ttf); }
@font-face      { font-family:"text_font"; src:url(res:///opt/sony/ebook/FONT/tt0011m_.ttf), url(res:///tt0011m_.ttf); }
body            { font-family:"text_font", serif; orphans: 0; widows: 0;}
h1,h2,h3,h4,h5,h6 { font-family:"title_font", sans-serif; }

Walt,

Yeah, I got it to work.

I THINK that I was getting that error because I was trying to run the universal flasher from the internal memory, I had a bad SD card and the reader wouldn't recognize it, so I tried to flash from the IM. I've since replaced the SD card and got things running like I want them, with one exception. The first time I plug the usb cable into my reader, I get an error on the sony book software and in Calibre. I can unplug the reader and plug it back in, and it works fine. Not sure what's causing the problem, but for the time being, I can live with it. Hopefully I'll get some time in the next week or so to look more deeply into what's causing it and get it fixed.
