Font on Kindle only works on some Books
Hi, i love these Fonts, unfortunately it seems only to work on some Books, but i dont know why? Can you help me? Thanks!
Hi,
various users tried the Fast-Font on Kindle and there are some interesting findings how the Kindle works with Open-Type Fonts. It seems the Fonts work out of the box with DRM-Books (bought from the store). Local books pushed to the Kindle via Calibre doesn't allow the font change.
Some users created a python script to auto convert eBooks to Fast-Font and load them via Calibre on the Kindle. Please refer to this thread, where also the scripts are linked: "https://github.com/Born2Root/Fast-Font/issues/8"
Hi, I had the same problem and so I wanted to elaborate on a solution I may have found. I was in the same situation, where Born2Root is right - DRM-books were fine, but so were few others? Anyway, what I did was to remove all the books from the kindle and then redownload them via cloud. What that did was that it took books from just being epub and such and just being placed in documents folder on Kindle and they were placed into documents/downloads/Items01 folder in .sdr file format. I don't know that that exactly means, but I can confirm that you can run it on all books (except pdf) natively on devices as Paperweight 11th gen even if you have this problem at first. Obliously you would have to tinker with it but from what I see it's possible.
P.S. I have also did what was mentioned by Born2Root in other thread and that was copied font 4 times and named them -Regular, -Bold etc. and that helped too. + I did couple of reboots, but as I said, you have to tinker with it
