Question: does anyone know how I can view Indic characters, both devanāgarī (ऋ and ष etc.) and IAST (for Sanskrit mainly, such as ṛ and ṣ etc.) in epub ebooks on a Kobo? With the standard font settings, they're just omitted completely (which I found out after trying to decipher some very strange looking words just before going to sleep 😅)

I've tried different fonts. I've also added Noto Serif Devanagari to the fonts folder, but then everything becomes devanagari...

Update: the Adishila font fixed the issue for this book! Although some characters such as the copyright icon are now devanagari 😂 I think something's off with the encoding, but it works well enough for me. Thanks all!

Die Einleitungen der #Ministerrat-sprotokolle sind zusammengenommen eine einzigartige Geschichtserzählung der späten #Habsburgermonarchie mit Informationen, die sonst nirgendwo zu finden sind und Belegzitaten, die direkt zur Quelle führen.
Leider sind sie bisher schwer konsumierbar. Bald nicht mehr, denn wir werden sie im #EPUB-Format veröffentlichen. Das hat Platz in (letztlich) jedem #eReader.
Wir freuen uns schon sehr darauf.
