Three more fonts that look awesome on the PW: Adobe Caslon Pro, Minion Pro and Constantia -so sharp you can use really small font size.
I found them on my computer. |

Tonight I jailbreaked my K4S, installed the font hack to get a copy of the condensed Kindle font. I was able to Modified it by adding weight and now I think Amasis might have a little competition. I always loved how it look but it needed to be bolder. |

I need a font where italics looks handwritten, for a series I am reading that starts with a diary entry on each chapter. I figure, "why not", and "can your paper edition do this"?!
Does anyone know of such a font? Otherwise I'll try to patch one together. I tried it with Lucida, renaming the Lucida handwriting font to italics, but I guess that renaming the file name itself is not enough, since it showed up as a separate font entry on the kindle. |

Sorry guys but it does look very nice. I added Georgia with some weight and it looks very nice on the PW.
So this brings to question has anyone hit a font limit yet? I thought it be 6 fonts but I am passed that. I sure don't want to mess my PW up. I've got 8 so far. Amasis, Charis SIL, Nokia Pure, Trebuchet, Garamond Pro, Georgia and Caecilia Condensed Bold and Segoe. |

Actually, come to think of it, I think I had added more than 8 when it started to cut the page off. Last edited by sparklemotion; 01-15-2013 at 01:38 PM. |

Truthfully Jailbreaking a K4 is easy but it doesn't do anything. It's just framework so to speak. There really isn't a reason to do it for the average Kindle user. |
