Hi !
I tried to make some registry hack in order to read some documents with japanese characters in it.. But I failed. I don't understand ...
I have a french Rom and the default font is Segoe Condensed. So I copy new font into my Storage card in windows\Fonts\ directory, especially msgothic.ac3
Then I add these key in the registry :
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Microsoft\FontLink]
Segoes Condensed="\\Storage Card\\windows\\Fonts\\msgothic.ac3,MS UI Gothic"
Tahoma="\\Storage Card\\windows\\Fonts\\msgothic.ac3,MS UI Gothic"
SimSun="\\Storage Card\\windows\\Fonts\\msgothic.ac3,MS UI Gothic"
... and many other links (font used in my documents)
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Microsoft\FontPath]
FontPath="\Storage Card\windows\Fonts"
I checked that the fontlink is activated and finally i reboot my phone...
Everything goes right but when i open my files with ClearVue ... I always have squire instead of japanese characters...
Any ideas?

OK, you need another font set for CV,
pls try to those attached CV JP font into Storage Card\windows\.
i thinks it will work,
Thank you very mutch Asukal for your help !
Unfortunately .. it doesn't work. I tried to copy them into my Storage Card in windows and windows\Fonts and even on the system ..
But I'm wondering about these files.. they don't have any extension.. is it normal or should I rename them with .ttf ?
they doesnt need any extention.
this was taken from Japanese CV applications,
and worked on a WM5.
so it may different style of font?
Any way, CV doesnt read font of TTF or ac3<on WM5 and PPC3>
The way,, if the CV for SmartPhone JP, or such like application,
you can extract them and take those files,
Or,,, location of those file??
i thinks same folder as CV.exe or windows folder.
But can not place them on \main\windows....
i will check the Chinese SmartPhone how they do?
Now it no battery charging to check!
Wow this is a quick answer
I've just try to copy these files on the CV directory... But without success ..
I'm gonna write an email to Wettek to get more information about it ..
my chinese smarphone doesnt have CV,,
and i couldn find any japanese CV for Smartphone now,,
Anyone have the solution ? T_T

wetek didnt give you solution?
Are there any other application for your desire?
No Japanese MS SmartPhone Exisiting now,
No chance to get from there,,,,,
So, i will chack it again possiblility!
In fact they said that it would work with japanese font installed. But I've added this font (msgothic) and it don't work either.
I did not find any japanese rom for smartphone except from microsoft *for development purpose*. It's in such rom that i've extracted ac3 font.
I can't even try these new dictionary :
http://www.handango.com/PlatformProductDetail.jsp?siteId=1&productId=191833
http://www.handango.com/PlatformProductDetail.jsp?siteId=1&productId=191878
They need to be runned under a japanese rom to work.
:x
I don't understand why microsoft don't make patches to enable other languages in WM5 SP/Pocket
hi, i agree that!
anyway, i checked SDK emulator Image for japanese SmartPhone,
then i have found registries as follows.
REGEDIT4
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\FontLink]
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\FontLink\SkipTable]
"Courier New"="005c"
"nina"="005c,00a5,007e,0391-03c9,2026,2116,221a,25a0-25ff"
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\FontLink\SystemLink]
"ＭＳ Ｐゴシック"="\\windows\\nina.ttf,Nina"
"ＭＳ ゴシック"="\\windows\\nina.ttf,Nina"
"MS PGothic"="\\windows\\nina.ttf,Nina"
"MS Gothic"="\\windows\\nina.ttf,Nina"
"MS UI Gothic"="\\windows\\nina.ttf,Nina"
"Courier New"="\\windows\\msgothic.ac3,MS UI Gothic"
"Nina"="\\windows\\msgothic.ac3,MS UI Gothic"
can you try this? if wettek corect, your smartphone has jp font you can read.
But you can modify strat as: Storage\
I've copied my files into the real windows folder (not on my sd card) And I've added your key. Unfortunately I can't add the two first key in
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\FontLink\SystemLink]
because I can't write japanese characters. I've restarted my SP and still nothing!
I'm gonna be mad :shock:
Can anyone makes me a cab file with these registry hacks, I'll try it again with all keys added.
Thank's Asukal for your help and your patience !
hi,

But this is my 1st cab for Smart Phone,
not sure it work or not.
1 is the font in \Storage\windows
other is font in \windows

Hi,
I guess the C600's system font is Segoe Condensed, not Nina.
Please try as follows,
REGEDIT4

"Nina"="\\windows\\msgothic.ac3,MS UI Gothic"

About the Japanese characters, use MobileRegistryEditor, and try to copy and paste from this article to the registry that loaded into MRE.

You're right it's the default font.
Thank you, I'm gonna try it right now.
EDIT: just a question : should I use 'string' for all values?
I'm sorry guys, nothing happened.
Still the same problem.
Hi,
I've tried to copy the contents (4 font files) of CV_JP_FONT.rar into \Windows folder (not under Storage Card or \Windows\Fonts folder) and loaded Japanese PDF document with ClearVue PDF in my Dopod S300 (HTC Star Trek).
Certainly it works...
Of course, Japanese system font has been copied, and related registry also set in my S300.
Pls check again.
Can you download one of these lesson and try reading them ?
http://www.tevader.com/apprendre-le-japonais.php
I'm wondering if it's not because of the sunsin font used in these documents i can't read them...
EDIT :
These files are already in my windows directory...
I downloaded a japanese pdf files and it till doesn't work
I should miss something.. it's not possible ! :evil:
I've also tried to enable chinese character. Nothing !
Is it possible to use a real rom under Smartphone emulator? If so you can try with official Orange ROM. See under this section "SPV C600 French ROM" or tell me how should i do to make a full backup? (maybe with awizard 1.3 ? )

I've downloaded a DOC file from the site you mentioned and open with ClearVue Document, it can work quite correctly...
I think the CV font is not depend on the original font in DOC or PDF files. In this case, the character is certainly displayed with MS UI Gothic font that installed in my phone, even though the font is specified as SimSun (S/Chinese) in the original DOC file.
For now I can't do anything for about a week. I'll not have an acces to the web. I hope that i will find a solution to my problem during this time...
Thank's to both of you. See you next week
thanks kyunga your covering fire! :wink:
alncool> kyunga is the 1st Expert of SmartPhon in Japan.
i beleive you can solve soon!

Hey LtBlue, there is something wrong with his registry settings, they not correctly setting the files on some devices, you'll need a registry editor, active sync your phone and run the reg edit from your pc and change the following:
HKLM\Software\HTC\HTCAnimation :
StartupGif - \Windows\animated.gif
HKLM\Software\Microsoft\Splash Screen :
CarriereBitmap - \windows\welcomehead**.png
MSBitmap - \windows\welcomehead**.png

the ** means the number at the end of the name of the image, dont put "**" cos it wont work.
Hello there,
been here in this forum for a while and learned all by myself till now ... now I really need help for something .... look at the screens provided ... it`s from "Post your LEO screen" thread. It`s a nice theme, but I need to know couple of thing about the fonts:
1.Look for example at Settings tab screenshot .... how can I edit my font so it can change just the headname of the TAB not the whole TAB itself? In other words ... how to make a font that is different in different places of the phone?
I think I must modify some mode9 manila files, but I don`t know witch one is for what ... is there an editor like CHOME visual editor but for manila tabs ....
2. How can I change the colour of the text on font ... lets use the same SETTINGS TAB as example ... the text is WHITE and also grey ... how can I make the white for example BLACK ? What should I modify ... I think I must modify again some mode9 manila files but again witch ones exactly ... how to find out?
3. Look at MESSAGE TAB ... what should I modify for color text for time and SENDER of SMS ? Maybe is the same as changing the text color anywhere in the phone ... but not sure again how to do that ....
It would be so nice if someone can really help me .... don`t know if the place of the thread is here, and not in DEVELOPMENT section , because there are more people who know lot about manila files ... but I would like to try that find someone here.
Thanks in advanced for all your answers ... here is the whole theme in screenshots : http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=5941044&postcount=2178
Asked the creator of the theme, but he seems to not understand what exactly I want ...
HI
I don´t have the fonts from the screenshot but i have some other!
I´m sorry about that i have no screenshots from the attached fonts.
Hope you like it. The Fonts are cab files. Install at your device. For changing uninstall first and than install another one.
Hi ... thanks for the answer .... but I don`t need fonts ... I have the fonts from the screenshot ... I want to know how can I edit them so there are different fonts in different menus with different colors on some of them ... how can I edit fonts as they appear in the phone at all ... that information I need ...

I don't know sorry... Do you know the name of the font on these screenshots? The one that looks handwritten (word "calendar" for example).
It`s Satisfaction FONT ... but please stick to the point of finding solution ?
Thanks !

Sorry like I said I can't help otherwise I would... Not to be a pain but would you mind sharing the cab to that font since you mentioned you have it?
Finally I`ve done what I wanted ....
for those who want to know here is a little tutorial :
There are a total of 5 files in /Windows that refer to FONTS. These are :
Cour.ttf -> TF3D light font
Tahoma.ttf -> WM regular font (regular text)
Tahomabd.ttf -> WM bold font (task and bottembar and other bold text)
HelveticaNeue LT 35 Thin.ttf -> TF3D Regular Font (all the bigger title text in TF3D -> Calls, mail title, settings title, weather title etc.)
HelveticaNeueOTS -> TF3D Bold Font (all the small text in TF3D -> Appointmentsmail example, settings, weather)
So if you want to make a font of your own just do the following :
1. Download a font to your PC (fonts can be found anywhere in Internet, for ex. www.fonts101.com
2. Download a software named FontCreator ( www.high-logic.com/fontcreator.html ), or similar. This software is paid , but I found a cr***ed version of it. Open the font (xxxx.ttf) you downloaded in step 1 with FontCreator, go to Tools > AutoNaming and rename the font to one of the following (in accordance to what exactly do you want to change in the looks of your font in your phone):
The fontnames you should put in are:
Helvetica Neue OTS --> for Cour.ttf
Tahoma --> for Tahoma.ttf
Tahoma Bold --> for Tahomabd.ttf
HelveticaNeue LT 35 Thin --> for HelveticaNeue LT 35 Thin.ttf
Helvetica Neue OTS --> for HelveticaNeueOTS.ttf
YES ... Cour.ttf and HelveticaNeueOTS.ttf have the same Autonaming !!!
Then click NEXT and then FINISH. Now you just need to go to File > Save (or Save As) and save the file, but remember to name it again as the same way you named the file in Autonaming option, but this time include the extension (.ttf).
3. Repeat that with every file you want to change. At the end you need to put those files in /Windows folder of your device and replace the original ones (backup old files first) using for ex. Resco Explorer. Or you can also create a .cab file using for ex. Quickcab and put all files you need to change in that same .cab and install it to your device (I`ve done it that way, cause I want to be able to just delete it and bring the original font back).
And now you have a completely different look of your phone. Any questions you have .... PM me and I`ll try to answer them.
Thread that helped me answer my question (thanks to original author) :
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=454792 ----> Name of the font files are different , cause this is for WM 6.1
You can find interesting fonts here : http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=450335 (again don`t refer to the tutorial at that thread, cause it`s for WM 6.1)
Inserting two files : by request the Satisfaction FONT (in a .zip so extract first) and a .cab I made witch has the Calibri font as main font and the Satisfaction font as Bigger Title text (changed HelveticaNeue LT 35 Thin.ttf - just like in the images posted at post one of this thread).
P.S. Still want to find an easy way of changing the font COLOR of every TAB, so advices are welcomed.
Many thanks for that .
The attachements have .ttf files in them? Any idea what I should do with these? I thoughts these were cabs .
The first attachment is a .cab file ... just install it. The second is the Satisfaction.ttf font. You can create a complete font using the method I wrote. But I`m sure that you will need to resize the font using FONT Creator , or else you will not get the result you need.
I can make you a .cab with the Satisfaction font, but I`m sure that the result wont be that good , as a mixed font on your phone. Just try the Mixed font.cab I provided !!!

Sorry ... are you satisfied or I need to make you another .cab ?
No I'm fine, I installed the mixed .cab and it's just what I need. Thank you.
