New fave font: Bookerly - Page 2

I enjoy Bookerly font on my Glo HD so far, but the Bold Italic texts appears just as Italic. Anyone else suffers from the same problem??

I have Bookerly on my H2O. I'll have to give bold italic a go. I cannot remember if I've seen it used yet.

If I remember rightly I think Bookerly works fine as-is in standard epubs but in kepubs Italic and BoldItalic both render as BoldItalic.

I think someone posted a method to fix it in kepubs. It's somewhere in the Kobo forums but unfortunately I can't remember where.

ETA: The words "Koboify fonts" rings a faint bell.

I found the answer. The Bookerly font works fine, but the default fonts automatically renders the h1, h2 and h3 titles as bold texts...
