But PRS T1 still cannot display correctly Vietnamese characters. (PRS 650 display well)

The 650 and T-1 have different operating systems, you have to find out what the new path is for the T-1. While correct for the 650 I don't believe res:///Data/ is correct root path for the T-1. Inquire in the Sony (mobileread) development forum.

This assumes that a font file /Data/FONT/tt0003m_.ttf exists on the device.

Educate me please... can I use this override command to force an app (Bluefire) that does not offer Arial to override and use Arial? I have an iPad and Arial is present on the device. If so.. what would the specific command be?

It would depend on whether the app supports @font-face and whether iOS gives it permission to access files from random places on the filesystem

Thanks... I accomplished by adding/changing the font in the css and setting the app to use the default face. Worked great. No override needed.
