First of all, big thanks for alanine for sharing the hack for customizing fonts for 505




Using your method, Korean users succeeded in using Korean fonts on their PRS 505.



Soilwork, I have had trouble getting Korean documents to display - some of my rtf's are encoded in EUC-KR, some use ISO-2022-KR and some use Unicode. What is the base encoding for the documents you use and what Korean fonts have you installed that match it?

Thanks for the help!

I am sorry but I cannot help you there. I did not try to load Korean fonts since I don't plan to read Korean books in my PRS-505. I already spend way too much time surfing Korean websites :) I just posted the link to alanine's post on a Korean website.

Then, someone actually tried and posted a Korean translation of how to install fonts.

Judging from the response, many people seemed to be successful. I guess you can refer to this link and see whether it solves your problem. If not, you can ask questions there.

Hope this helps.

Not a Korean speaker, but from the experience with PRS500 hack, I guess only unicode is supported.

I guess you'd better change the encoding of documents with UTF-8 or Unicode, using WordPad. That'll work.
