a) (This needs to be done only once at first) | |
Configure Calibre to remove 'font-family' style element during conversion: | |
In Calubre, | |
--> "Preferences" | |
--> "Convertion > Common Options" | |
--> "Look & Feel" | |
--> "Styling" tab | |
--> in "Filter Style Information" | |
--> check "Fonts" checkbox | |
--------------------------------------------------------------------------- | |
b) Import the book into Calibre fron the Paperwhite device | |
(make sure you have Aprentice Alf's plugin installed | |
and configured for your device, otherwise Calibre | |
will not be able to convert the book) | |
c) convert book to MOBI (even if it is already in MOBI format) | |
May be you could convert to AZW3 too, I didi not try this - in any case, do convertion by Calibre. | |
If asked Calibre to strip font styles (see step a), Calibre will strip hardcoded font styles | |
and you will be able to change fonts using Font Dialog on the device. | |
d) Send book back into the device (by USB or "Send to Kindle" app) |
