Something a little odd with the new RK fonts. I have Rakuten Serif selected, as shown in image 1, but when I click on the "Advanced" tab, the font changes, as in image 2. I have to select Rakuten Serif. Does anyone know why this might be happening?

Since they were so kind, some info on the new fonts (via fontdrop.info):
Rakuten Serif v3.000
Rakuten Sans v.2.200
Weird that Rakuten Serif has no ligatures but Rakuten Sans does. Although that might be a bug with fontdrop too as maybe the Small Figures feature of Rakuten Serif Regular is throwing things off (scanning the Bold version shows 44 ligatures and no Small Figures, so I'm leaning towards fontdrop bug, I think. Either that, or there really is something wrong with the Regular version of the font). Last edited by rtiangha; 09-20-2022 at 08:37 PM. |

It'll be nice to see the new fonts on the reader, but I like many others will be waiting for patches. 4.33 runs well enough for my Sage and uses.

The fonts work fine on my Libra 2. I tested it immediately after the update to see if I can replicate what you experienced. BTW, the fonts look like this: https://global.rakuten.com/corp/desi...ets/img/kv.svg Last edited by Deobulakenyo; 09-21-2022 at 02:51 AM. |

I had to try several times to find it. the menu in-reading must first be opened and then the new symbol appears at the top center. Last edited by gabryele; 09-21-2022 at 04:59 AM. |
