You can use ttfautohint to add hinting to fonts that need hinting. It's very easy to use. There are binaries for Windows and Apple. http://freetype.org/ttfautohint |

Have you made a list of fonts that don't work properly?

I reported this to Kobo months ago, I think it was escalated, but so far it wasn't fixed. |

How is that even possible? That's like typing Méabh and getting Meábh (though confusingly both of those are used). Or Bán and Bań (which doesn't exist, though ban is also Irish). |

Hi, not sure if you have found your answer, OP, but you can edit the stylesheet by adding it when converting on Calibre. But, instead of kobo-font-hintstyle=0, you put 1 instead. Hinting will be disabled, but unfortunately, it will also disable the font weight adjustment. If you're willing to trade the weight adjustment with the hinting disabled, it is worth trying.

Sorry to revive an old thread, Colonel Cathcart, but did you ever get an answer from Kobo on this? I'm having a similar-ish problem so if there is a solution that would be excellent.

It wouldn't hurt if more people with this or similar issue will report it, maybe then it'll get a bit more attention? The reference number for my report is 3762075. Mind you, I reported some other issues I found while I was at it. |
