Is it a must to install all of the fonts within the font family (bold, italic etc) or can I install just the regular version of the font? Thanks.

However, the Adobe rendering app for standard epubs needs all 4 files to be present if you want to be able to see regular, italic, bold, bolditalic. |

I tried a bunch of others, Kobo Nickel (which is nice, but spaced out so much it makes really long chapters), Caecilia, ChareInk. Noto Sans, but nope I'm back to Amasis. I'm just too used to it I guess.

Hi
I could use some help. I have a few new fonts (new to me) that i want to add to my Aura One. I have looked at several you tube tutorials. for some reason I cannot find the existing "Font" folder when i open the reader in my windows 10 explorer.i assumed there would be a stand alone folder within some of the other folders on explorer. are they hidden somewhere ? |

Hi Again and sorry to be a bother.
I have done this before but with a new PC and a new reader i have to relearn it all again. The folder is called fonts. Ii placed it as a stand alone folder with 5 other folders which are named; certificates,dict,guide,kepub,kobo and several other (9) files. Thanks for helping me. |
