am I missing something.... I only notice one font with TT font(s) for Clie...

other posts and reviews refer to font(s) with this program... ? is there more than one included in the file from Lubak?

It replaces the built-in system fonts. I have no clue as to how many there are. The only option is to enable or disable. I use them now and have been very pleased with the improvement in readability.

Before Lubak created TT4NX, he created a bunch of fonts that can be used with FontHack123 on pre-OS5 devices. Maybe that's what you're seeing others refer to.

I wish he would make the same thing for our NXs... I am sure I am alone on this but I do not like the TT fonts on the NX...

I didn't care much for the bold, but the standard ones I found to be very nice. Like anything else it's a matter of personal preference.

Are there any *smaller* fonts for the NX that we can get somewhere? I'm only 17 and my eyes serve me well. I'd like to be able to fit more text on the screen at a time.

AFAIK, there aren't any, but there are MANY programs that enable you to set your own fonts . . . PalmReader, Isilo, Handstory, SplashMoney, Shadow, DateBk5, Agendus, Launcher X, ZLauncher . . . I'm sure the list is MUCH bigger.

As far as changing the font in Launchers, etc., and making them smaller, I'm sure you'd run into the same problem OS4 users do...the 'garbage' around the fonts if they're too small for the system. Looks UGLY!

Well, to be fair, I only got the "garbage" around the fonts when I didn't set it up properly in FontHack. If I did do it properly, some of the smaller fonts looked great. I would love to see Lubak's SansSerif22 font ported over for OS5. I'm still using that in PalmReaderPro, and it looks incredible!!
