Can I read Korean books with this device?

Yes. Please note that unfortunately, the Korean language is not supported by the device and cannot be installed as the language of the user interface. You will need to install additional fonts to read Korean books on the device. Additional fonts are installed in TTF and OTF formats, and the TTC format from the SW version 6.4. To install, simply copy them to each of the following folders: system/fonts, and to system/adobe/fonts on the device’s internal memory. After adding the font, open the book and in the Settings select the font you have installed. IMPORTANT: These fonts can be applied only to text formats, such as: doc, docx, rtf, etc. IMPORTANT: If the device is connected to the PC and you cannot find the system folder, it is hidden. To get access to this folder, follow the steps below: 1. Open the root folder of internal memory of the device with the help of the File Manager and select the Service Tab in the upper part of the File Manager (if it is not visible by default, press ALT to call the Service Menu) – choose Folder Specifications. 2. In the pop-up window select the View Tab (the second tab in succession). 3. Find and untick the checkbox next to the "Hide protected system files and folders" option and tick the checkbox next to the “Show hidden files and folders" option. Confirm your choice with YES and APPLY. Attention! To get access to the hidden folders on the PocketBook device connected to a Windows 10 PC, proceed as follows: 1. Connect the device to the PC and double click to open it. 2. Go to the View tab - click on Options and then on Change folder and search options. 3. Folder options will pop up. Go to the View tab and then tick the checkbox next to the "Show hidden files, folders and drives" option. Also, untick the checkbox next to "Hide protected operating system files (Recommended)" option. Confirm your choice with YES and APPLY.
