Converting Iriver FW Fonts into RockBox-Compatible Fonts...

(1/4) > >>

darkarn:
Did I miss something out when installing RockBox? Is there any additional files that I need to add into my player?

Is there any way to convert the fonts used by Iriver firmware into one that RockBox can use?

I tried using the Iriver fonts as its own. It shrunk all letters greatly and turned all my Japanese characters into squares. What gives?

(Changed thread title as its focus has been changed)

Thanks!

saratoga:
You're probably using a font that doesn't have Japanese characters.  Try unifont or another that you know does Japanese. 

darkarn:
I used unifont and Japanese characters are showing up. The problem is, the fonts are a little too big... Is there a smaller version of it?

pixelma:
The UnicodeFonts page in the wiki gives an overview over fonts supporting additional character sets. Recently the fonts were renamed in a "fontsize-fontname" style and so you might want to try out "13-Fixed" or "15-Adobe-Helvetica", both supporting Japanese and smaller than "16-GNU-Unifont".

Mind you that 15-Adobe-Helvetica has no Kanji support. Other fonts with Kanji support are 14-Rockbox-Mix and the Sazanami-Mincho fonts.
