someone w/ Font Creator, can you help?
 
There is a problem with Pocket Esword and the fix is known and i use the grainy/washed out font currently but is someone has the ability to create a better font, PLEASE HELP. below is the fix instructions, thanks.


If you have the same problem as me, the older version of e-Sword is partly
broken and the new version has massive fonts. I have found a temporary
workaround.

1. Download a trial version of High-Logic Font Creator. You need a version 5
trial as the new version 6 is save-disabled.

2. Copy e-Sword fonts from PPC to a temp directory on PC.

3. Open a font in Font Creator. Select all and then go into menu item Tools and
select Glyph Transformer. Then select the item Outlines-Scale. Change the two
values to a lower percentage. I chose 75% for both. Click OK

4. Then go to menu item Format-Settings-Metrics. Change the values of WinAscent
and Win-Descent. I selected 1400 and -500 respectively. Click OK and then save
font.

5. Transfer over to PPC. First I had to rename the 2 fonts on the PPC to
Ezra.orig and Galatia.orig because it protested files were in use.

6. Fire up Pocket e-Sword and voila :-)

Two caveats:

1. Do not edit any system fonts because it will mess up the size in other progs.
Not a prob for me because I use Ezra as English and Hebrew font.

2. The fonts are not brilliant. The Greek especially is a bit washed out.

Optional Step

Buy Font Creator but it is really expensive!
