continuing the posts about fonts.. here’s how you can add extra fonts to your iPhone for use with WinterBoard and maybe other applications as well..

Advantages of adding extra fonts:

• Set your SpringBoard icon labels to the font of your choice [through WinterBoard]
• Get extended font support for viewing websites in Safari
• Get extended font support in applications, either as a user or a developer

For this tutorial I will add the Calibri font family to my iPhone, the following fonts of this family should be available on your computer by default

• Calibri Italic
• Calibri Bold

“Give a man a fish, he’ll eat for a day, teach a man to fish and he’ll eat for a lifetime.”

Terms for this tutorial:

custom font is the font that you are going to port for your iPhone
ported font is the result of the process that will be placed on your iPhone
