Upload original font files and ill scale the whole font down a little for you :)
give a %range of how much smaller you want them.

well i think it would look better if they were scaled down to 90% from its original size.. by the way, how can you do that?
these are the original w610 fonts that i extracted from its FS (\TPA\PRESET\SYSTEM\FONTS)

I do it using a program called Font Creator (you can only scale with the pro or trail version, the option is disabled in the home version).
Edit: I cannot scale the Regular..... there ".ccc" format, I cannot do anything with those :( I dont know what program is needed (or if one exsists) to edit them.
You could try these but they don't contain chinese (there in the .ccc file :(, but i'v scaled the bold, italic, bold italic down by 90%, also made a mock regular, but that also dont have chinese :()

I created that font :p also Monotype Corrsive "SE" (I only converted from PC and added the extra symbols needed to run oin the phone though), I'm also in the middle of making Bank Gothic Thin (Gothic Bank but alot smaller and better :p)

Open a ttf file with font creator, select tools/glyph transformer ;)
you will have to mess around with the font afterwards in most cases (unless the font is hinted properly, and even then still a little).
Glyph Transformer is only available with 3 day trail and professional version of font creator.
and glad it worked :) I had to create that regular :lol:.... did it have chinese???

nope.. lol.. i never used chinese anyway.. may have something to do with the APAC FS..
by the way i download a central europe firmware and it had a regular ttf file, so i used glyph transformer and scaled the original files to 80%.. thanks a lot diezil!

There is another way to change font size. I upload great font to my K610i but I want to be smaller and discret so I change in LAYOUT.xml font values and now looks great. You can try that from K 610i eSnips Folder ([Only registered and activated users can see links]) LAYOUT THIN and Calibri fonts together.

yep, that's another good way too.
well, i did think about that, but i'm too lazy to find the values in the layout.xml :-D
