Yes I'm not surprised there are font problems.
Currently fonts are handled by XSLT that converts OSIS to HTML, and by
the default fonts in the Swing HTML renderer.
We need to be able to get from the modules the language and then to be
able to configure fonts on a per-language basis. Actually better than
language could be a Locale.
I'll add this to the bug-list.

Most dictionaries should work. So support LD and LD4, and I'm working on
zLD. My initial search didn't find any zLD dictionaries so I left it
out. What is failing in particular?

Nope. GenBook is missing. I need to do a bit of thinking on this one.
Thanks for the report.
Joe.
