Font setting failing when converting to PDF

mzso · 02-05-2018, 07:49 AM

Hi!

I set Gentium as the font, but for some documents (epub source format) the font setting is not applied properly during conversion to PDF.

Though my chosen font appears in the document properties, but not the first listed and the text certainly doesn't appear with it. Some unknown font is used which I never set.

When you are converting to PDF the fonts specified in the PDF Output section only apply if the input document does not have its own font specifications. You can use the Look & feel section of the conversion dialog to tell calibre to remove font declarations in the document during conversion.

You mean the checkboxes in the styling section?
