User Defined Fonts

gr8npwrfl · 01-20-2010, 11:59 AM

What I suggest is to remove one of the fonts and define a format to allow you to put ANY font you want on the SD card.

if the first four locations in the file are FF AA 55 00 and the file name is exfont, this would let the jetbook know that it had a valid font on the SD card and you could purchase ANY TTF font you wanted.

The next 6 locations would be the zoom size, allowing users to taylor the font sizes to their own preference.

This would satisfy any reader that desired to have a different font. Problem solved and everyone is happy.

I see this request in every single ebook reader out there, someone always wants a different font or different font sizes.

This option would place jetbook firmly ahead of all other ebook readers out on the market today in this respect.

I hope they are listening. Because if they can get the epub thing sorted out and user definable font's and sizes they'd have a real shot at leading the market.
