You can also find additional fonts over at MobileRead (where I found the instructions). If you’re looking for fonts, I have posted a copy of the Bookerly and Ember fonts (with Amazon’s indifference, if not outright permission). A font family usually comes in sets of four, and they all have to have similar names otherwise they won’t all be found by the device.
Copy all the font files into that folder.Note that the folder must be named fonts, with an "s", or the device won’t see it.Simply plug your Kobo device into your computer over USB, and then use your computer to create a new folder called fonts in the root folder of the device.But embedding a font in an ebook is a hassle, and fortunately we don’t have to bother with that step to load a font on to a Kobo ereader. The above Epub trick also works to get a font on to a Kobo device, if you like.
Sidenote: Did you know you can embed a font in a Kindle KF8 file? The short version is that you need to make an Epub file with the embedded font, and then use Kindle Previewer to convert that Epub file to a Kindle ebook. While you can’t install custom fonts on a Kindle or a Fire tablet without hacking them, it’s relatively easy to install fonts on Kobo ereaders. Thursday’s news about Amazon’s new font, Ember, inspired me to go find instructions on how to install it on an ereader.
