I think I made a mistake by not researching for FontSwap too much..
apparantly an application with the same name and purpose used to exist for the 1.x firmware.. I’m surprised how I could’ve missed that.. it used to be a TouchRepo
app..

it’s needless to say that this app is totally unrelated to the older one except for the functioning..

now.. for those of you who’re having issues with the default system font being a few pixels too high..
copy [do *not* move] Helvetica.ttf and HelveticaBold.ttf
from
/Applications/FontSwap.app/StockFonts/ to
/var/mobile/Library/FontSwap/Packages/System Fonts/Default.font/

and reapply the default system font using FontSwap..

for those of you who’re worrying about why the Phone app doesn’t launch after applying Dialer font.. I don’t know.. the font change does take place. the Phone app is terminated and started again but it starts in the background.. the selected font will be available next time you start the app from the springboard.. will look for a fix for this..

I’m just trying to stress that this is a beta release and many issues will be ironed out with an update as soon as I get time to work.
