I came across an article while browsing the internet saying the font used in the Sony Ericsson logo (also on our phone cover's) is modelled on a font called Digital Sans, and so it started....

If you spot an error with your language in the font, could you please send me a pm with an MS Office or WordPad (not notepad) doc with your full language written in ariel, and underneeth written with sony sketch, this will greatly help in fixing the problem's with your language set. Thank You

There is a PC version, its actually the intended version, the Mobile Edition only came because it looked good on the phone it currently only has the Regular as I'm still working on the rest of the font family, there is already a senspace link at the bottom of the post

But it dont have any Cryillic charactors "yet".


k50i? do you mean k750i?
No the phone needs to support ttf fonts so anything from k800 to newer.

add the 2 files from the third link (Font with xml file) FONT.XML and Sony_Sketch_Mobile_Edition.ttf and upload to "tpa/preset/system/font"

I dont fully understand, sorry.

Do you mean you want to keep the fonts you currently have and replace the default English charactor set with the Sony Sketch font?

If so i would need a copy of your phones "tpa/preset/system/font" directory, all ttf files and the FONT.XML to do that, but it will take time to edit the Glyph set but ill do my best to do it quick if you give my those files so i can edit them
