I've attached the file as requested for K2, K2i, and K-DX. It's like the Georgia hack, but the font is a bit narrower, darker and larger, and Bold doesn't pop as much. Screenshots are attached. I personally prefer the other one, but personal tastes are great (which is why Amazon should really allow this option natively!!!) Enjoy!

I've made a new version of UFH. It installs on Kindle 2.3 (thanks, jyavenard for updating the packager script so quickly!).
It also has a template for using your own fonts. Detailed instructions and downloads can be found here: Kindle Unicode Fonts Hack |

Several people reported not being able to uninstall UFH 0.1 and 0.2 with 0.3 uninstaller. Since I don't have any Kindles that are not 2.3 I can't tell for sure why, however I've provided the links to old uninstallers here

Unfortunately the JhengHei Font doesn't install at all - maybe the file it too big. I might try myself with some other fonts with Blog Kindle's template. Thanks anyway!

UFH Helvetics2 - K2, K2i, KDX running 2.3
Here's the UFH for Helvetica2 (Kindle 2, Kindle International and Kindle DX). Files signed, no need for pre-jailbreak. I haven't tested them, but they should work fine. Enjoy.
