[Touch HD General] sklappe:
***** UPDATE MANUAL + NEW FONT - SEE POST 6 ******

After a lot of testing this is the final font changing manual (as far as i'm concerned), based on bhodgin's manual and KDiz additions. With holyfox's tools.

I've only tested on a dutch Touch HD, so maybe the TF3D is built different.

There is quite a diference between my manual and KDiz's manual

I'm assuming the TF3D on the HD is different from the Diamond, hence the difference

So how did i do it:

First copy over all .ttf files from your Blackstones Windows folder to a backup folder somewhere

(turn on hidden and system files in Total Commander or Resco Explorer if you can't see them)

Now choose the font you want to use, i used Continuum (Regular, Bold and Light)

so i started off with 3 ttf files in a folder on my computer.

Make a subfolder and put copy's of your ttf files in it.

1 x light font file, 2 x regular font file and 2 x bold font file

Then rename them according to the following list (added -> to show what file impacts what):

fontname -> changes font in TF3D

cour.ttf -> TF3D light font

tahoma.ttf -> WM regular font (regular text)

tahomabd.ttf -> WM bold font (task and bottembar and other bold text)

neue Helvetica LT 35 Thin.ttf -> TF3D Regular Font (all the bigger title text in TF3D -> Calls, mail title, settings title, weather title etc.)

neue Helvetica LT 55 Roman.ttf -> TF3D Bold Font (all the small text in TF3D -> Appointmentsmail example, settings, weather)

Now you have the above files in your subfolder.

Now follow this procedure for every font:

open the ttf file in FontCreator.

go to Tools > AutoNaming.

Here you enter fontname, click 'Next'.

Another window will open, select 'Finish.'

File > Save

The fontnames you should put in are (i think you will understand wich name goes with what file ):

Courier New

Tahoma

Tahoma Bold

HelveticaNeue LT 35 Thin

HelveticaNeue LT 55 Roman

IF YOU DON'T AUTONAME CORRECTLY IT WILL NOT WORK !!!

Now you have the 5 files in your folder.

Open WinCE CAB Manager. A window will pop up.

Go through the Wizard and fill in a name and cab name and accept the defaults.

Add the newly made .ttf files to the Files tab (open the tab through the Cab tree on the left side).

Select all of the files and rmb to properties. On the location tab select the Windows folder and Apply and OK.

It should now read %Windows% for all 5 files.

Save your CAB, copy to your phone, run it and it should work.

To be on the safe side, disable TF3D when installing the CAB and reset twice (needed sometimes, dunno why) after the install.

You could copy the TTF files manually to the \Windows folder instead of using/creating a CAB.

And here's how my first CAB looks (includes only the fonts):

Background is custom with "Background 4 all tabs"

Icons (HTC_3D), sliders (Pamas Transparent), topcurtain (invisible), bottemcurtain (default), battery all found in the diamond forums.

Continuum by Righteye.Cab (fonts only)

After some serious testing i found some stuff out. Have updated the above text

1) You only need 5 fonts, i can't see what the 2 Helvetica's without 'neue' do, so i left them out

2) Correct Autonaming is essential

3) Added the RadioSpace font from DaFont.com and the screenshot in post nr. 6
