Quote:

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 'alba'
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 searched the forum and realized this is how you change the font in your n900. The problem i face is I really don't know where usr/share/fonts/nokia is. I'm a noob, but I'm willing to learn. Please help.

By the way, im trying to put the palm pre font on my n900, which i've already gotten. It's called Coconut-Condensed Medium.ttf

Re: Changing font

Sorry to double post but i think I'm supposed to create the directory for fonts.

Code:

mkdir ~/.fonts

It didn't seem to work though.
