Converting Iriver FW Fonts into RockBox-Compatible Fonts...
Chronon:
There are some instructions here about how to convert fonts to Rockbox's format.
darkarn:
Yeah, I saw them just now... So if I do not want to change anything to the font and just want to convert them into RockBox-compatible fonts, what command should I use?
How do I measure the size of a font anyway?
EDIT: I tried... Didnt worked; seems to me that Iriver has encrypted the file or something...
Chronon:
I don't know anything about the fonts they use. FontForge seems to be the most powerful tool on that page, so I would try to use that to convert the font to .bdf format and then use the convbdf tool to convert that into a Rockbox font.

Where are you getting this 'file' from?
Are you extracting it from the original firmware? (I haven't checked but I assume that there are tools to re-skin the original firmware so logically they must be able to 'import' other fonts)
darkarn:
@Multiplex: Yep, got it from the original firmware...
@Chronon: I cant open the file... Received two messages...
1. Bad Magic Number: This does not appear to be a Windows FNT for FON file
2. Could'nt Open Font: File is not in known format (or is so badly corrupted as to be unreadable)
