Included in the repository right now are my tweaked 'NV' fonts, but [the older release](https://github.com/nicoverbruggen/ebook-fonts/releases/tag/v2024.03) may still be of interest as I've included my initial batch of tweaked fonts mentioned in [the blog post](https://nicoverbruggen.be/blog/patching-fonts-for-kobo) there.

**NV Junius** is a [Junicode 2](https://github.com/psb1558/Junicode-font) variant based on the variable font, with adjusted metrics and a 10% glyph size increase. This one does not have a repository, but can be easily recreated by using [Slice](https://github.com/source-foundry/Slice), a GUI that allows you to export various fixed configurations.

## FAQ
### Can I test these fonts?
Yes, I recommend grabbing the **Evaluating typefaces for electronic reading** document that I have added as a sample book. It contains markup to test various font styles. You can get the [Kobo epub](./docs/Evaluating typefaces.kepub.epub) or [regular epub](./docs/Evaluating typefaces.epub).
### What tweaks have been applied to these fonts?
- I've set a 20% line height (using `font-line percent 20`). Some fonts rendered poorly on Kobo devices with the line height slider all the way to the left. This fixes that!
