Need to find out if there's an actual Kobo bug tracking system available to us for opening tickets. But wait a minute, don't they have something like that for people with a defective unit? |

i think the issue is similar to the margins not working when in the body. I think that it is the way the Kobo Touch is making changes like fonts and margins by overriding the body style (the have stated that they have a lot of issue with the adobe SDK and this might be a workaround).
If they are overriding the font-family in the css, maybe that is why they can't use the font embedded there. I would really like with issue like this to have them acknowledge that there is a problem of if they simply can't do anything because of the way they have programmed it and don't want to redo everything. |

I noticed Gentium Book fonts are the embedded fonts in the book form.
Also saw this thread https://www.mobileread.com/forums/sho...d.php?t=149072 They didn't say the epub in question used embedded or what form the CSS was in. I did note 1 solution was changing the font name ending and another was converting TrueType to open type font. |
