Changing the Font Used for the Metadata Overlay
If optional fonts are uploaded to the SME 211, the user can select and use one for
displaying metadata text instead of the default font. Size and color can be selected for the
OSD text. Optional fonts must be uploaded to the fonts folder within the SME 211 from the
File Management page or by using an SFTP client program (for example, Filezilla) before
selecting it in this page.
NOTES:
•
The SME supports TrueType™(.ttf) and OpenType
•
To upload a font file, use the file upload utility within the File Management page.
•
The user is responsible for obtaining any necessary font licenses before uploading
fonts to the SME 211.
•
After changing the font, some text can appear truncated in the on-screen text
because characters can be wider in the selected font than in the system default
font.
•
These settings also control the Universal OSD settings (font, size, color, and
location).
Many free, open source fonts are available at https://fonts.google.com/.
TIP:

1.
Open the Encoding & Metadata page.
2.
