How to make the fonts bigger on myts8?

mcmay · 07-17-2013, 08:08 PM

Hi, there. I wonder whether it is possible to render the fonts bigger on myts8 which runs on my kindle DXG. The terminal works perfectly well except for one inconvenience---the fonts are a little bit too small for someone who has a somewhat poor eyesight like mine. If it is possible to enable bigger fonts on myts, please tell me how to make that happen. Thanks a lot in advance.

Try to edit myts.ini

Code:

    Font = 10x20.hex
    Encoding = UTF8
    FontHeight = 20
    FontWidth = 10

Thank you, NuPogodi, for your effective suggestion. Your code works quite effectively on myts8.

Here is also the conversion of the even bigger 16x32 terminus font. Unzip ter-u32n.zip in the myts directory and update myts.ini with

Code:

Font = ter-u32n.hex
Encoding = UTF8
FontHeight = 32
FontWidth = 16

Thank you, PoP, for your nice suggestion. Your font file and code really made the font appear MUCH bigger on myts8. I find it a little funny to see so big a fontsize on the screen of my Kindle DXG but I'm afraid it might be a little uneconomical in terms of space. It is really nice indeed. Thank you again.
