- Create plain text file named FONT_RAMP (there should be no extension; delete extension if it's created).
- Type in 14 numbers* (these represent font sizes in 1/100ths of an inch). The default sizes for a Kindle Voyage and Oasis1 (6-inch screen at 300dpi) are reported to be:
Code:
6.96 7.92 8.4 9.36 10.56 11.52 12.48 13.92 15.36 17.04 19.2 22.08 25.2 29.28
Adjust numbers up and down until you get the font sizes you want.
*If your software version is pre-5.8.11, you can only type in 8 numbers. For 5.8.11 and later, type in 14 numbers.
- Connect Kindle to computer via USB and copy the FONT_RAMP file to the root folder.
- Restart Kindle.
If you later decide you don't want custom font-sizes, simply delete the FONT_RAMP file and restart your Kindle.
Additional Notes:
- FONT_RAMP requires 5.6.1.0.5 or higher.
- FONT_RAMP only works with AZW3 or dual-mobi files containing both AZW3 and original mobi (aka old mobi, mobi-old, mobi6, mobi7). FONT_RAMP does not work with KFX or old mobi.
- Dual-mobi can be created using KindleGen or Calibre (see conversion preferences > MOBI output; select MOBI-both). Note: Dual-mobi files use the extension .mobi, which can make them hard to distinguish from old mobi files. Dual-mobis are only necessary if you want to use Send-to-Kindle and WhisperSync. If not, you can use straight AZW3.
