Summary of Modified Fonts
With all the fonts people are modifying, I thought it might help to get them at least listed in one post. Rather than attaching the fonts to this message, if you click on the little blue icon after the original poster's name, you will go to their original post.

Please change the link for Charis SIL I've done a lot more work to the fonts and I'd like the link to reflect the latest release. Thanks.

I think this was a great idea. Can we get it stickied so it doesn't get lost?
It'd be worthwhile stickied so we can add to it rather than starting multiple threads as people find more fonts. |

How about a description (or link) in the first post on how to add them to the device?

Just to save a bit of effort for anyone using JSWolf's modified Charis SIL font, I've attached a .zip file with his latest regular and compact versions with the font names set as required for a Kobo device.
Just unzip the .ttf files into the fonts directory on your Kobo, power cycle and enjoy. Edit: corrected a typo in the BoldItalic variant. Up to 2.6.1, BoldITalic worked but now it's fussier and wants BoldItalic. Regards, David 2016-Jul-15 -- Removed outdated attachment Last edited by DNSB; 07-15-2016 at 05:39 PM. |

I have a new set of Charis SIL that have had the metrics changed to make it larger. It's in beta until Monday and if nobody says there's a problem with it, I'm going to release it. Someone else has asked for a lighter version and I'll be working on that next week.
