Kindle will now let you install custom fonts: A how-to - TeleRead

Panzer hasn't been to the TeleRead site for a while, so he decided to stop in there today. It's a good thing our inquisitive kitty did. With no digging at all he discovered a post with an important announcement about the Amazon Kindle ereader.

According to the post by David Rothman, there's a long overdue improvement for the Kindle ereader. Amazon now allows the download of custom fonts to their ereaders. The post uses a screenshot from a Kindle Paperwhite as an example, but other ereaders have the same capability now. The post includes a link for the update. If you don't know what generation of ereader you have, there's also a link included to determine which it is. There are instructions for an update for older ereaders as well at the Amazon site. Some updates need to be downloaded manually, so it's important to check the site to make sure your Kindle continues to work.

Her Kindle is way older than me.

Panzer says, "This little kitty can hardly believe it. We followed the links and found out Mom has a third generation Kindle. She got it as a gift when it was brand new. It's so old she can't download new fonts to it. Lucky for her she has got a new Paperwhite for Christmas."

Note: This is a medium length post. Bring a cup of tea and a muffin for today's reading selection.
