Cyrillic alphabet only visible as question marks
Hello,
I've got several books in Russian and my (very old) e-reader only shows the characters as question marks. The thing is that not all books are unreadable, but most are. I haven't the slightest idea where to find the differences. In my opinion they are all epub files. I would be very glad if someone could tell me how to correct this. Thanks in advance for your thoughts ! |

1. Embed a Russian font 2. Buy a new Reader (such as a Kobo Libra 2) and side load a Russian font. |

Font embedding via Calibre or Sigil works.
