Fonts <font/>
These settings control the phone’s ability to dynamically load an external font
file during boot up. Loaded fonts can either overwrite pre-existing fonts
embedded within the software (not recommended) or can extend the phone’s
font support for Unicode ranges not already embedded. The font file must be
a Microsoft .fnt or .fon file format. (.fon file format is a collection of .fnt fonts
grouped together within a single file.) The font file name must follow a specific
pattern as described:
• Font filename:
<fontName>_<fontHeightInPixels>_<fontRange>.<fontExtension>
• <fontName> is a free string of characters that typically carries the meaning
of the font. Examples are “fontFixedSize” for a fixed-size font, or
“fontProportionalSize” for a proportional size font.
• <fontHeightInPixels> describes the font height in number of screen pixels.
• <fontRange> describes the Unicode range covered by this font. Since .fnt
or .fon are 256 characters based blocks, the <fontRange> is Uxx00_UxxFF
(.fnt file) or Uxx00_UyyFF (.fon file). For more information, refer to
Multilingual User Interface on page 4-29.
• <fontExtension> describes the file type. Either .fnt for single 256
characters font or .fon for multiple .fnt files.
If it is necessary to overwrite an existing font, use these
<fontName>_<fontHeightInPixels>:
If the <fontName>_<fontHeightInPixels> does not match any of the names
above, then the downloaded font will be applied against all fonts defined in
the phone, which means that you may lose the benefit of fonts being calibrated
differently depending on their usage. For example, the font used to display the

“fontPropSoftkey_10” This is the soft key specific font.
SoundPoint IP 550, 600, 601, and 650
“fontProp_19” This is the font used widely in the current implementation including for
soft keys.
“fontProp_26” This is the font used to display time (but not date).
“fontProp_x” This is a small font used for the CPU/Load/Net utilization graphs, this
is the same as the “fontProp_10” for the SoundPoint IP 500.
