Title: Adding Fonts To Web Browser
Post by: dingo on July 29, 2005, 03:56:40 am

Hi guys,

I have a new Zaurus sl-c1000 and it’s wonderful, my question is:
Is it possible to add more fonts to NetFront v3.1 (for surfing web sites with Hebrew encoding for example)?


Many thanks,

I am not sure about hebrew specifically.
I haven't got my cf card yet to try browsing normally.
But I think you should try installing Meanie's X/QT package with firefox.
Much better chances that it would work.

I installed the FireFox and guess what, Hebrew is supported!
Thanks a lot!
