Im not entirely sure wether or not your phone is supported by xs++, but if it is all you need to do is modify fonts.xml (found in "tpa/preset/system/fonts" ) and change it to something like:

<xml>
<engine cache_size="131072" default="yes">
<font style="sans-serif" weight="normal">/tpa/user/other/fonts/regular.ttf</font>
</engine>
<engine cache_size="262144" default="no">
<font style="sans-serif" weight="bold">/tpa/user/other/fonts/bold.ttf</font>
<font style="sans-serif" weight="italic" s01="20">/tpa/user/other/fonts/italic.ttf</font>
<font style="sans-serif" weight="bold-italic" s01="20">/tpa/user/other/fonts/bolditalic.ttf</font>
</engine>
</xml>

Then when you want to change your font all you need to do is place the following 4 files in "/tpa/user/other/fonts/":

1) regular.ttf
2) italic.ttf
3) bold.ttf
4) bolditalic.ttf

(e.g. "/tpa/user/other/fonts/regular.ttf" etc)


A handy trick is to place all your different fonts in seperate folders within /tpa/user/other/fonts/.. e.g. "/tpa/user/other/fonts/Simpsons/regular.ttf" etc..

..if you do this, you can then copy & paste the four .ttf files from their own folders to /tpa/user/other/fonts/.. then when you turn your phone off and back on your font will be changed :)


Hope this helps ;)

That way you would have to change the fonts.xml every time you want to change your font.. ^the way i explained^ you can have several different fonts in your phone and then you can change them whenever you want just by copying & pasting them.

You dont have to connect your phone to any flash program to be able to do it, or you dont have to change the .xml file :D
