KD-Font v1.2.4

So you're looking for something to give your phone a fresh look, right? But you don't want to spend a ton of time learning how to do something super simple... You've come to the right place!

KD-Font allows you to change the fonts on your Windows Mobile device, within a matter of seconds. And you don't have to take time to even learn how to use the app! Just jump into the library, pick a font you like, tap "Apply", and watch the magic happen. The app will download any font(s) you choose from a remote server, apply the fonts, and then leave you to enjoy the results! Looking to customize the experience a bit? Check out the "Library Settings" to fine tune KD-Font to your liking.

The server-based library allows you to have constant access to an ever-growing collection of fonts to choose from! Since the library is server-based, you also won't have a ton of space being taken up on your device for font files you'll never use. And if you do want to save the files, just make sure to turn the option on in the "Library Settings". Then you can switch back and forth between your favorite fonts without waiting for a download.

You can choose to apply fonts to the entire device, specifically the Windows Mobile OS, or specifically the HTC Sense (TF3d) UI! You can even apply different fonts to WM and Sense if you want!

Heard enough? Download the CAB below, install it on your device, and then go for it!

Never required, but always appreciated!!!

nice hope to see some screen shots.

[QMeli907]

Screenshots would be awesome. What fonts will this change? Everything? (text messages, main fonts on homescreen, emails, program files, start menu applications, etc.)

If it does not change all, a list of what it changes and does not change would be good to include. Looks like a good idea. I've heard of people changing fonts but it never really struck me before. Might try some out if they look decent though.

Thanks have been given for the initiative to start

I will be testing them tonight, so I will post up screenshots and a list of what does/doesn't change. The ones I made for the TP1 changed everything, so I'm planning on being able to do the same for the TP2.

On another note... My internet was giving me trouble right after I started the thread, is there any way (@mod maybe?) to get my two reserved posts moved up to #2 and #3?

[QMeli907]

If you cant get mods to change you can use my post for stuff. I can edit as needed. Always an option

Shoot Sauman a PM. He's one of the mods here on the TP2 forum. He changed a poll I started a few days ago to add a couple more options people wanted to include. He might be able to flip the posts around. Its fine if mine needs to be moved.

[Wesley762]

Never can have enough Font's to install this is much appreciated.

[Sprints700wx]

Fonts would be a Nice addition to the TP2.

iThink i recall seeing your post on the TP1 and the screen shots on how the fonts looked .
