Moving fonts out of Main memory

I remember there is a utility that can move the fonts out of main memory ? Any idea ?

Is Fonts on Storage what you're looking for?

Fonts on Storage works fine for me, created a folder in my cf drive called Fonts then moved all my fonts to that folder.

I copied the 6k exe file to my windows StartUp folder because a shortcut would hang the bootup

Where exactly should I put the Fonts folder ?

\SD Card\Fonts
\SD Card\Windows\Fonts

Would it work if it's BIS ?

Thanks.

Why you so surprise ? If the PDA (or even PC Word) cannot display the font, it shows up funny char, in this case, square.

I have a x50.

I just wonder what is the difference between yours and my setup ??

ok, when you said yours displayed square, square, square; I (apparently) wrongly assumed you meant the program was not working at all. Not that a particular font does not work.

I think you have then answered your own question, some fonts may not work as intended. However, the Font on Storage program in and of it self does work as advertised.

you say x50 then I would also assume that it is not the VGA version. If you have a VGA version then I have a modified Font on Storage exe file that has a VGA icon. Can post if you want it, assuming you have VGA

I was just going to add that I had a vga icon version. That's how I found out about the app.

Were you the chap I changed that icon for?

I've copied the fonts to /sd card/fonts and put the program in Startup. However, I'm not able to delete the fonts in Windows. Any idea how I can delete them ? THanks.
