what should i do?

make for copies of it .
and name exactly the same as the four files shown in insturctions.
i have just recently changed my fonts the same way.

change the name without putting .ttf at the end as they are already .ttf .

so just change the name of those four copies exactly same and put it in /usr/share/fonts

and then go to theme customizer and choose your font and reboot your mobile .
done .

no .
dont delete them .
actually theme customizer only reads the ones which are placed in /usr/share/fonts
try placing all the fonts in this path and theme customizer will read all of them .

plus those four files too.
so have you installed winscp ?
and openssh ?
and i hope while installing openssh it has asked for the password ?

good means you already know how to use WinSCP :p
good.
ok now make a back up of original nokia text file.
means copy them in your computer and then just place your files .
and the answer to your last line.
everytime you need to change your font you have to connect your phone to pc .
else i will not suggest using root as i am also a noob :)

hey so in nokia folder i should replace those 4 files with my renamed fonts files? and i meant that like there are other folders in the fonts folder in n900. like arabic folder and chinese folder. can i do this, maker folders of my fonts. and those folders should have these 4 files renamed to the names in instructions. and then i select from theme customizer?

yes just replace them
or you can just place them any where in /usr/share/fonts
and yes you can make your own folders .
theme customizer will show them as far as they are in /usr/share/fonts .
hope it will work :)
