Solution:

  1. Delete the original document
  2. Re-import the document

PDF Chinese display issues

Some PDFs may use special fonts or encoding. If display is abnormal:

  1. Try opening in KOReader
  2. Or regenerate the PDF file

Custom Fonts

To use custom Chinese fonts, upload font files through the "Personalization" feature.

Go to Paperweight > Personalization to manage fonts.

After changing fonts, you need to restart the app for changes to take effect.
