Wrong Title and Author on default ePub cover - RESOLVED
I tried to convert Chinese PDB to ePub. Everything went well except on the default cover, the title and the author were "?" marks. Please see the attachment. How do I fix this?

Go to preferences->tweaks and set the fonts for the generate cover to some fonts that support unicode chinese and japanese characters.

This is what I did and it works great.

preferences->tweaks->Specify which font to use when generating a default cover:

# Specify which font to use when generating a default cover
generate_cover_foot_font = 'C:\\Windows\\Fonts\\msjhbd.ttf'
generate_cover_title_font = 'C:\\Windows\\Fonts\\msjhbd.ttf'

Thank you so much!
