I said 'to a shelf in the Books listing', not 'add a shelf'. (though I also don't see how to add a shelf in the Books listing.)
I'm in 'Books' currently sorted by Recent Reads. I click on the slashes and there is Read Now, View Details, Mark as Finished, Delete. Ok.. not there. Click on View Details... I don't see anything there either, just Read now. If I go to Shelves I can add Shelves and books there, but that isn't where I want to add it from which is why I mentioned the Books shelf specifically. If I'm wrong, please correct/teach me . You used to be able to do something like 'add to shelf' within the Books listing or click the heart. Quote:

The Kobo manual explains how to add fonts. It is very easy. You add a folder called fonts in your root directory and then copy the fonts you want into that folder. You will want to chose fonts that have four variants so you get the normal font, bold, bold italics and normal italics.
These is a video here: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KU7JpaKlyMc I have not watched it. The link to all the Kobo user guides can be found at: http://www.kobo.com/userguides I'm not a huge fan of using the store, so I just don't click on the buttons that take me there. |

You will have to find a Delima font to add. |

Are you on the 2.1.4? In that firmware you can add a book to shelf via the menu beside the individual books. Pretty sure I checked this on my KT, but for sure on KG (not next to the KT currently)

Kobo's George Taluson gave this explanation of font names:
https://www.mobileread.com/forums/sho...5&postcount=46 For example. Gentium Basic files are named like this: GenBasB.ttf GenBasBI.ttf GenBasI.ttf GenBasR.ttf |

When I upgraded from 2.0.0c to 2.0.4 (the first time, as it took two times to actually load the 2.0.4 firmware), a file was left behind by the update, Welcome_Guide_JA.kepub.epub, which is a Japanese welcome guide to a 2.0 (or earlier) version.

I'll double check the fonts. Sounds like its working for everyone so the info I read in the other thread was misleading or was cleared up after I read the thread. The other poster could have made a Fonts and not fonts folder. Thanks for clearing things up . I still can't sign-out without having to re-run setup settings so that original bug remains. |

FWIW, I have 2.1.4 on my KT and the "add to shelf" function is there from the library view and from within a book itself. |

And one rather major non-improvement. On three Kobo Touch units, after the 2.1.4 update, when reading a sideloaded book from an SD card, if the KT goes to sleep, after waking up, it does not respond to taps and then restarts.
