You download the .bin file and then use the KindleTool (the link is for reading the readme, etc.) to unpack the file. Download KindleTool from NiLuJe's Snapshots thread..

My procedure is to download the firmware file, rename it to kindle.bin and copy it into my kindletool directory where I already have a directory called unpack. I open a command prompt on that directory and enter: KindleTool extract kindle.bin ..\unpack\ on the command line. After KindleTool has finished, you should find several files and a directory in the unpack directory. Open rootfs.img.gz with 7Zip, dig down to fwo_rootfs.img/usr/java/lib where you should see fonts.sqsh. Open the fonts.sqsh file. You should see all the fonts listed.
