Regarding BD:

You can set an install location to any folder of your choice and you  
can add as many path to installed modules as you desire. Just point to  
folders containing mods.d and modules.

To set the font on a per module or per language basis: Go into the  
module installer, and navigate to the installed book or language.  
Click on the activated "Font" button to select your chosen font. (This  
should be in the manual but isn't)


Hope this helps.

In Him,
