Using  Your Own Font (*.TTF)
  • Make 4 copies of the font you desire to use and place them in a folder labeled ‘Fonts’.
  • Name them exactly as:
– s60snr.ttf
- s60ssb.ttf
- s60tsb.ttf
- S60ZDIGI.ttf
  • Copy this folder to the ‘resource’ directory on the memory card and restart the device.
REVERTING TO ORIGINAL FONTS
  • Connect the phone in the ‘Mass Storage’ profile to the computer. Alternatively, you can use the memory card reader.
  • Goto the Memory Card, it shows up as a Removable Disk in ‘My Computer’. (Windows)
  • Navigate to the ‘resource’ folder and open it.
  • Delete the folder labeled ‘Fonts’. Alternatively you can choose to rename it to ‘Fonts2′ or anything that you like.
  • Restart the phone, the originals should have been restored.
In case something goes wrong e.g. the characters are not displayed and so on, simply turn off the device, remove the microSD and start the phone. (You can delete the Fonts folder subsequently) Since we are using the removable microSD to experiment this process cannot damage your phone. Also, while choosing a font do keep in mind the fact that it will affect the font of the Web Browser also, so please keep something readable. E.g. The second font in the above list, looks ‘cool’ but will make web browsing a pain.
Enjoy!
