Took the plunge and installed the new firmware on my KA1 LE! I like most things, except the use of bold sans-serif font.
Here is a short video showing some of the features when reading ebooks and manga:

The new 4.17 Freedom to Advanced Fonts Control patch is working fine on my Clara. This is the single most important patch for me. I mean -- the fonts are what I am READING.

I'll wait for the official patch release for some minor tweaks.

Wonderful! Thank you.

Nice video. Now could you please show us 4.17.x with ePub instead of kepub? Thanks.

I had a quick look at the kobopatch thread but it looked a bit complicated. At least, I didn't see clear instructions on how to use it. I could probably work it out in the end but the official patch releases on the other hand are so easy to use... I guess I would find kobopatch as easy to use once I'd learn how to

It's gorgeous

Patrick, thank you for the hack that corrects this ridiculous new change and in general for all your great work.

Um, what exactly do you mean by that? All releases for almost the last year are kobopatch ones. The kobopatch thread is about kobopatch itself, not the patches. That's why it would look complicated. For the patches, you'll want to look at the patch threads or the request thread sticky.

Thanks, can I ask if I can just unzip everything and put it in the .kobo folder or in the root?

In terms of grabbing the patches from GitHub and setting them up to actually do what they’re supposed to I can see how it’s going to be a bit confusing.

Especially versus snagging the assembled package when you finish them and release them. I imagine I could get through it with some stumbling but I can see other users here being totally lost.
