After restart and opening the book, it needed to set to the new Times New Roman font once, and after that it was locked in the new as seen in the screenshot. Note that the font is changed to Palatino, but locked to the newly created Times New Roman. Update: Very interesting side-note. The Book that I used, even though assigns Times New Roman in its stylesheet, it does NOT default to and lock into Caecilia Regular, but to a san-serif font. Creating fake Times New Roman did change the font it finally ends up beeing locked into. My example from earlier about defaulting to Caecilia Regular only applies to situations where a non-font-locked book is concerned. Last edited by DuckieTigger; 02-21-2013 at 08:43 PM. |

Very interesting stuff! (For now I haven't bothered to set up my own fall-back 'Times New Roman', but instead run it through Calibre. But it's good to know how it works.) |

Amazon offered a refund! Not bad - but I stick by my 1-star review, as the books are broken.

That TNR was specified throughout makes me think that it was auto-converted from a Word doc. Thanks - NJ |
