how du you "mirror the files on the rom- drive (z:) over on the mem- stick"?
Just copy the directory structure from the rom- drive, over to the mem- stick (and include only the files you want to edit). And then edit the files on the mem- stick afterwards. Then reboot, and it should work.
(If it doesn't, there's a problem with the name. Maybe it's the wrong case, or something like that. Windows tends to add capitalisations to folders, and sometimes extensions to files - that might be the problem. It's possible to turn it off in the "folder- properties", I think.) |

Do these fonts have the missing keyboard characters (return, shift etc)? |

Correct me if I'm wrong, but are saying that you don't edit the files in Z:resourcefonts , but just copy them over to the memstick, edit/replace them there (in folder D:resourcefonts), reboot your phone, and then you're good to go?!
(pls forgive my ignorance =)

 Yeah. No hack, or anything like that. Just using the same file- names in the same paths as on the rom- drive. (It doesn't work on system- files or individual programs like opera, though..)

..Read further up in the thread - if you need the special characters, they can be copied from the default font- files with some tool or other.

I followed emyh and scotland67 guides and here you have a updated z8 font with the missing keyboard characters (return, shift etc). Also hebrew and arabic included.
Works perfectly on my P1i phone and it looks nice!
If you need a guide how to install them, check out the great p1iblog site here!

Hey thanks Xdusty, they work a treat. A lot bigger in file size though - 87k versus yours at 225k per typeface? |

I was just wondering if anyone has found a nice clear and readable font for UIQ3. So far i've tried a number of fonts sony sketch, nokia fonts, curve fonts, comic sans, calibri, and the z8.
Out of all of these the z8 fonts remains the most readable font. Does anyone know of another readable font? Would like a change.
many thanks! |

Thanks to AD I now have the modded version of the Z8 fonts and I love it. Works perfect.

You can't easily change fonts like the European version, because the fonts used on the Asian firmwares aren't named the same way.
Take a look at this guide on the P1i Blog
