4.6.1.14 Fonts <font/>
This section does not apply to the SoundPoint
These settings control the phone's ability to dynamically load an external font file dur-
ing boot up. Loaded fonts can either overwrite pre-existing fonts embedded within the
software (not recommended) or can extend the phone's font support for Unicode
ranges not already embedded. The font file must be a Microsoft .fnt or .fon
mat. The font file name must follow a specific pattern as described:
• Font file name:
• <fontName> is a free string of characters that typically carries the meaning of
the font. Examples are "fontFixedSize" for a fixed-size font, or "fontPropor-
tionalSize" for a proportional size font.
• <fontHeightInPixels> describes the font height in number of screen pixels.
• <fontRange> describes the Unicode range covered by this font. Since .fnt or
.fon are 256 characters based blocks, the <fontRange> is Uxx00_UxxFF (.fnt
file) or Uxx00_UyyFF (.fon file). For more information, see 3.5.1 Multilingual
User Interface on page 52.
• <fontExtension> describes the file type. Either .fnt for single 256 characters
font or .fon for multiple .fnt files.
If it is necessary to overwrite an existing font, use these <fontName>_<fontHeightIn-
Pixels>:
®
SoundPoint
"fontProp_10"
"fontPropSoftkey_10"
®
SoundPoint
"fontProp_19"
"fontProp_26"
"fontProp_x"
If the <fontName>_<fontHeightInPixels> does not match any of the names above,
then the downloaded font will be applied against all fonts defined in the phone, which
means that you may lose the benefit of fonts being calibrated differently depending on
their usage. For example, the font used to display the time on the Sound Point
600 is a large font, larger than the one used to display the date, and if you overwrite
this default font with a unique font, you lose this size aspect.
11..fon file format is a collection of .fnt fonts mangled together within a single file.

<fontName>_<fontHeightInPixels>_<fontRange>.<fontExtension>
IP 500 and 501
This is the font used widely in the current implementation.
This is the soft key specific font.
IP 600 and 601
This is the font used widely in the current implementation including
for soft keys.
This is the font used to display time (but not date).
This is a small font used for the CPU/Load/Net utilization graphs,
this is the same as the "fontProp_10" for the SoundPoint
