The four icons in the corners (home, settings, etc.) are not shown correctly on the eReader Pocketbook Touch HD 2.
Here is how it looks like:

No problems on my Kobo eReader, but that does not help you much I think.

You are using the eink theme on your eReader.
Do you have the same issues when using the default theme on your eReader or use the eink theme in a browser (firefox)?

Using the default theme on the eReader shows the same problem. With my "real" browser (firefox) on my desktop pc, everything's fine. Aren't these icons simple images? If they're some unicode symbols, I would guess it's a font problem...

As far as I understand These "icons" are actually a (truetype)font. FontAwesome.ttf

Your eReader probably cannot display this font. Don't know why.

I'm currently updating Fontawesome to use a recent version. Maybe it will help. I'll post here when it's done

Can you check again with latest master build ?

Still works on my Kobo Glo HD.

Not sure if I really like the "new" font. Needs some getting used to I guess.

I'm also not sure to like the small differences in the new Version but it was way too old. I've updated my main COPS library and see if I get used to it ;)

@seblucas Sorry, no changes on the eInk device. It still shows the symbols as in the screenshot above.

@beedaddy maybe this should also be reported to the Pocketbook (probably they need to update their software) and to the FontAwesome team.

Yes you should at least report it to PocketBook. To be 100% sure that it's not COPS's fault, can you browse font awesome website with your Pocketbook and confirm that even on its website you only symbols instead of icons ?

Recently, the Pocketbook Touch HD 2 got a new browser software. Now, everything looks ok. I guess you can close this issue. And thanks for your support.
