Publisher Default Font

I have searched but could not find anything useful so bear with me if this issue already has been addressed.

I can't change the font in the book I am reading. In the menu it says that the font is 'Publisher default'. There is no drop down menu with other fonts to pick from.

Is there a way I can fix this?

Thanks for your help.

Basically two ways:

1) by editing the css, or
2) using kepub instead of epub

Does this happen with all eBooks or just some? Is it ePub, KePub, or both?

It happened with all books but I found out that the problem was elsewhere. When I want to change the font I try to activate the dropdown menu. Nothing happens, so it seems but after a long time the menu does appear. The system is lagging apparently. Don't know why. Pageturns are normal.

Have you rebooted? How many side loaded fonts do you have? Which firmware are you running?

This happens occasionally on my Sage, but not often. Rebooting fixes it.
