crzyboyster:
I discovered another font that works quite well with the rockbox font converter. It's called "VKB KonQa Communist" and I have converted sizes for use from size 14 to size 8 (although 10 looks the best). It has sort of a "grungy" look.
EDIT: I forgot the link (now included) and have now put in another font in the same font family "VKB KonQa Capitalist" and have put up sizes all the way from size 8 to size 15.

EDIT2: Found yet another (maybe 2) fonts that convert well. First off is the "N_FC_Creactivo_2008" font. They did not convert as well as the VKB fonts, but I guess they're OK.

Another font that I started to convert but didn't come out OK (but alright, I guess) was the "Shanghai" font over at:

EDIT3: I got started on converting a good sans-serif font and converted over a perfect font (in rockbox and the original version, too). It's called "Mank Sans" and it looks awesome! I converted sizes all the way from 10 to 20 (It wouldn't render under size 10).

(I only converted "MankSans.ttf" because the others turned out blocky and pixelated, but that one didn't at all (try it out!)
Enjoy!
GodEater:
Put it in the wiki please...
crzyboyster:
Where exactly in the wiki? Has there been a wiki page set up for fonts converted by users?
EDIT: Just made wiki page: http://www.rockbox.org/twiki/bin/view/Main/UserConvertedFonts
Feel free to put up fonts there but remember the guidelines! I am currently asking permission from the authors of the fonts. What does everyone think of the "get permission from author" rule? I personally don't like it, but it would be very un-rockbox to not do that, wouldn't it? ;D
Job Van Dam:
WOW! Thanks alot crzyboyster and karashata.
Grabbed all the fonts you guys upped and can't wait to try them all out.
karashata:
As much as it would be wise to get the permission from the authors/creators of the fonts, most of the fonts online these days can't really be traced to anyone specific... I found the fonts I converted out of an archived pack of 6,760 fonts which I could trace back as far as a font (and other stuff) archive site.
