okay i am using a kindle touch on 5.3.2 and i am apparently not doing this right because no custom fonts are being installed on my kindle. this is what my kindle drive looks like:
http://tinypic.com/view.php?pic=2wcr3ah&s=6 i added the USE_ALT_FONTS txt file and the fonts folder, ejected my kindle and then restarted it. please let me know what i'm doing wrong thank you Last edited by heatherlynn; 02-16-2013 at 10:41 PM. |

Here's a link to a proper alt fonts file, if that helps. The link is courtesy of user xtine, they were nice enough to share it.

If anybody needs to edit font names (such as postscript name, font family name, typeface name etc) because one wants to install different subsets of the same font - there's no need to install a full fledged font editor. There's a small free java utility that does the job and is just about a megabyte in size.
http://sourceforge.net/projects/ttfedit/ Looks abandoned but works. Tested on Ubuntu font family. |
