[Q] Question about fonts - Asus Transformer TF700

I have been using Softmaker Presentations and would like to install windows Opentype or Truetype fonts.
Can anyone shed any light on this?
Thanks,

There are several apps that change fonts. I believe you have to be rooted to use them.

duckredbeard is right -- you do need root to be able to install them. I used several font changers on a number of devices, but this one seemed to be the best for my use:
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.jrummy.font.installer

That's the one I've been using on several devices. Just pick a font, review it, apply and reboot. You can even import and add fonts that aren't built into the app.
You can't know your limits until you exceed them.

I'd like to comment that you do need to be careful if you are replacing fonts. Replacing the wrong font can cause issues like boot loops.

Also, some user installed fonts may not have complete character sets. You would then end up with boxes instead of characters. I had been using a font called Molengo, but it was incomplete. Boxes everywhere.

If you want to use other/more fonts in Presentations, you have to copy them to the SD card under SoftMaker/fonts.

][Fonts][ Over 2oo+ Fonts and 2 Apk's for Changing

Here is over 2oo Fonts to use on your HTC incredible system and 2 Apk's to use to use them.
http://db.tt/Eqzz10wn
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
Apk's
- RootExplorer "Sorry guys no Apk"
- FontChanger Lite
When using this, they do work - some will say this font failed to load - don't use those.
Some will also load but don't have certain symbols or letters/numbers.
I did this for people who just want to use either a different system font, or different fonts for Widgets.
Note : (When you extract the fonts - create a folder within root explorer and and name it / .fontchanger and put the fonts in there.)
Enjoy.

You should take down the root explorer app before the mods flip.
Just link to the app on the Android market.
(I don't know if the other app is a paid app, too, but if it is, do the same thing.)
That's what I thought but wasn't sure, thank you.
Sorry guys.

Does anyone have a zip of "fixed" fonts for the Incredible? I have noticed most fonts have some weird symbol or box at the end of truncated text.
Thanks for the heads up. Can use these.
I'll redo the links, it says there invalid.
Edit, fonts link fixed. I'll disable Font changer lite, just search it in the market. It's free.

Changing font type for e-mail app

Hi guys,
I use my tab heavily for work, meaning that I send and receive a lot of e-mails. Is there a possiblity to change the font from Times New Roman to something like Calibri or something? If I remember correctly I had this option on the GT-N7000 but it disappeared there as well. Maybe I am missing something ?
Thanks.

Anyone?
You can change fonts under system/display, but charge is systemwide .

Not sure if that changes the font you write e-mails in... rather the display fonts....

Edit
I suggest you trying some other email apps out there, I'm sure some will have the feature you're looking for. If it's really, really important there's always the possibility to use an app like Dreamviewer and control your PC remotely from the tablet. That way you can use your own client at the computer at work and aren't limited to what the tablet can and can't.

[Q] Font

Guys, any chance on adding or using additional fonts?
Adding more fonts? Doubt it.
Changing the default font? Hopefully soon.
Windows Phone 7 required a registry editor and file access for that. Until those are done for WP8 there isn't too much to be said.
Thanks! Will see if it ever happens.

Creating your own Template for S Note?

After thinking about it for a few days, I would like to create just a plain black background that I can use in S Note. I figured out that you need to modify the apk by replacing to .png images to the template you want. However, I have a problem re-installing the modified apk.
I have extracted the Snote_P4C.apk file from my tab and have modified it using APK-Multi-Tool. After resigning and attempting to install I am getting the following error;
Code:
Failure [INSTALL_FAILED_SHARED_USER_INCOMPATIBLE]
I have read online that this has something to do with my packages.xml file which is here: http://pastebin.com/36CLWZxq
Any help would be greatly appreciated as I would be willing to make a tutorial after
-Sbeanie
Can't you open a new note, then change background to your image? Is it what you want?
Sv: Creating your own Template for S Note?
ddavtian: since he's asking I assume he has the previous version of SNote and that doesn't support change background to your own image when you are in the note. Luckily there are a way to get around it and that is to select import image when you are in the app itself, where you can see all your notes and create new ones. This will create a note with the picture as background.
In the new version however, you just have to pick select image where you set the background and it works just like the stock backgrounds.

Editing Apps

The goal is to be able to change small things in some apps.
For example, there is an app called SnapChat which allows you to send a picture for 3 seconds and then closes the picture. In this scenario, I would like to be able to edit the .apk file to allow to stay for 4 seconds. Would this kind of this be possible?
How so?
Um....you can do this within the app.....stock....

I know, it was a poor example. But I'm just wondering if it would be possible to do small changes like this to apps?

You can change alot of things in apps just by playing around with them. Using Apktool or another decompiling tool, you can change alot in the res/values folders Theres alot of stuff you can play around with in the various xml files

use the search box at the top of the page. type in theme/mod apk's. pages of stuff will come up. here's 1 place to start- http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2069287
So you are saying I can't decompile or recompile apks on my phone? I have to use adb to push/pull and then use a program to decrypt the XML then I can change the values to what I want?

You're gonna have to adb push/pull unless you build your own ROM.
You can get apktool from here: https://code.google.com/p/android-apktool/

You can swap out images but you definitely can't change app settings like animations and such without the right tools and procedures.

OK. I don't want yo change animations just yet. I want to edit app icon colors widget colors. I pretty much want to theme everything.

use 7zip on your computer to swap out png's. change app's name from whatever.apk to whatever.zip then move it to your computer using 7zip open the archive. don't extract or unzip. navigate to res folder and open it. find the png files you want to change and insert your png files you want. make sure they are the correct size, in the correct format (png) and are named correctly. exactly as they are in the zip file. then close the zip transfer it back to your phone and rename back to whatever.apk i do suggest doing some more research before doing this. there are a lot of threads dedicated just for this. use the search engine at the top of the page. XDA provides it for this exact reason.
