Optimal font-smoothing for Calibre ePUB Reader
Calibre is a pretty popular eBook reader but it has a weakness. Fonts looks terrible, at last on Windows. Here you’ll find an easy solution for this.
This is my CSS Stylesheet for a better “Font Smoothing” in Calibre and it works pretty well.
body,
body.calibre {
font-size: 1em !important;
font-size: 1.5vw !important;
font-weight: 500 !important;
font-smooth: auto;
text-shadow: 0 0 4px rgba(0, 0, 0, 0.4);
text-rendering: auto;
-webkit-font-smoothing: antialiased;
/*
font-family: "Segoe UI", Consolas, sans-serif !important;
margin: 0 auto !important;
padding: 0 !important;
max-width: 90% !important;
*/
padding: 1em;
}
body > div {
margin: 0 4em !important;
padding: 0 !important;
}
body > p {
margin-left: 4em !important;
margin-right: 4em !important;
max-width: 90% !important;
}
code, pre, .pre, .program {
font-family: Consolas, "Courier New", monospace !important;
font-size: 1em !important;
font-weight: 500 !important;
font-smooth: auto;
}
p {
margin-bottom: 1em !important;
text-indent: 0 !important;
}
div.figure {
margin: 2em 0 !important;
}
div.note {
padding: 1em !important;
margin: 2em 0 !important;
}
div.list {
margin: 1em !important;
}I recommend the following fonts, in case they exist on your machine.
