Great handwriting font by ROLAN900D (fixed by leetut):
http://www.easy-share.com/1909301927...abithaFont.rar
http://www.mediafire.com/file/2znwfn...abithaFont.rar
just put the 4 font files:
nosnb.ttf
nosnr.ttf
nosns.ttf
nscnr.ttf
into:
usr/share/fonts/nokia
reboot phone and reapply any widgets back to the homescreen if they are missing
the 4 font files apply to different parts of the phone,
you could have 4 different fonts running at once,
on different parts of the phone if you wanted
here ive just included 4 copies of the same font 'thabita'
and renamed them to the above names
to apply a different font you must reapply the nokia original font first, (there included here) and reboot phone,
then apply your font files and reboot

i followed the instruction with a font of my choosing and replaced the
nosnb.ttf
nosnr.ttf
nosns.ttf
nscnr.ttf
in:
usr/share/fonts/nokia
with my ttf, but when i reboot the phone the system font change to a totally different font, can anyone give me a pointer to whether a ttf file has to have specific requirements on the n900??
cheers

ok, ive fixed the previous problem but a new one has arisen
the font i want works but the characters are a little bit on the small side, i know i can edit the file in the theme (cant remember the name right now), but wanted to knowm if it was possible to edit the actual ttf file to increase the fonts slightly??
i tried a bit of googling but really only came across font viewers and managers, ill do a bit more research when i get home.

The following will also work:
Then restart the device. (A restart may not be required depending on the application, but in my case I was installing ProFont to use as an xterm font).Code:sudo gainroot mv font.tff /usr/share/fonts fc-cache -f -v
it says: mv: cannot rename 'myfontname.ttf': No such file or directory.
where do I have to put my fonts?
