Tutorial


What's needed?

• Apk Tool: http://forum.xda-developers.com/show....php?t=1310151 to decompile and edit the apk
• High Logic Font Creator (Trial): http://www.high-logic.com/download.html to copy the glyphs into the digitally signed ttf or FontForge (for free): http://fontforge.org/ms-install.html
• Digitally signed Monoglyceride font & Monoglyceride apk (attached at the bottom of this post)
• A text editor like notepad++ (which is available for free): http://notepad-plus-plus.org/ to edit the smali files and xml files and the yml one
• A tool for signing the apk, e.g. Android Commander: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=597098

1. Creating your ttf/Editing the Monoglyceride font with Font Creator

• Open the downloaded "Monoglyceride.ttf" font with Font Creator
• Open the .ttf font you want to use.
• Make note of the number of glyphs at the bottom right side of Font Creator when you have your font selected
• Click the Monoglyceride font window in Font Creator and choose "Edit" and then "Select all" at the top of the program
• Hit delete on your keyboard. This should delete everything in the Monoglyceride window
• Click "Insert" and then "Glyphs" at the top bar of the program
• Type in the number of glyphs your font has in it and hit ok. You should now see a bunch of empty glyphs in the Monoglyceride window
• Now switch back to your font and again hit "Edit" and then "Select all" again
• Hit "Edit", then "Copy"
• Swith back to the Monoglyceride window and click "Edit" and then "Select all" and then "Edit" and "Paste Special"
• This will open up the "Paste Special" window. Put a check in every box in "Item Section" and choose "Add Mappings" in the mappings section and then click OK
• If this worked properly you should see all of the characters and mappings from your font in the Monoglyceride.ttf window
• Close your fonts window in Font Creator
• Click "File" and then "Save as", rename the "Monoglyceride.ttf" with the name of your font

2. Compiling the flipfont

• Copy the downloaded "com.monotype.android.font.monoglyceride.apk" into "place-apk-here-for-modding" folder in the Apk Tool directory
• Run script.bat (of the Apk Tool), select the "com.monotype.android.font.monoglyceride.apk" and choose option 9 to decompile it
• Open the decompiled folder placed in "projects" and go to "assets\fonts"
• Delete the existing "Monoglyceride.ttf" font and copy the .ttf font you edited in Font Creator
• Go to "assets\xml"
• Rename the existing "Monoglyceride.xml" in the folder with the name you gave your font
• Now open and edit this file replacing the word/name "monoglyceride" by the name you gave your new font
• Then navigate back and open "AndroidManifest.xml" and edit this file replacing the word/name "monoglyceride" by the name you gave your new font
• Do the same to "apktool.yml", also to "strings.xml" stored in res\values
• Open all the 5 smali files in the folder "smali\com\monotype\android\font\monoglyceride " by using your text editor and also replace all the points where it says "monoglyceride" by the name you gave your new font
  The files are called:
  R$attr.smali
  R$drawable.smali
  R$layout.smali
  R$string.smali
  R.smali
• Finally rename the folder "monoglyceride" (smali\com\monotype\android\font\monoglyceride) by the name you gave your new font
• Pay attention to capitalization when renaming
• Replace the icon.png in the drawable folder with one of your own (optional)
• Compile apk - choose option 11.when being asked if this is a system app,enter "n" and confirm
• Check the place-apk-here-for-modding folder and you should see "System_com.monotype.android.font.monoglyceride.ap k" along with
  the original "com.monotype.android.font.monoglyceride.apk". Rename your new apk file.
• Sign it

The steps 1. and 2. are required to create the flipfont!

Instead of them you can try this app coded by C7M: http://forum.xda-developers.com/show....php?t=2251745. It performs all these steps in a rush, just a few clicks are needed!


Changing the font with Font Creator,e.g. make it bold,thin,italic

• Make sure all of the glyphs of the new created font are selected
• Go to "Tools" and then "Glyph Transformer"
• Under "Available Features" expand the "Effects" tree
• Select "Bold"
• Hit "ok"
• Save/save as your new font name

Resizing the font with Font Creator

• Make sure all of the glyphs of the new created font are selected
• Go to "Tools" and then "Glyph Transformer"
• Under "Available Features" expand the "Outlines" tree
• Select "Scale" and then you will have two variables for Outlines-Scale
• Enter your desired values (e.g. 95.00,95.00 in order to decrease the size for 5%) and then hit "ok"
• Save/Save as your new font name

How to resize an existing flipfont

• Decompile the flipfont apk by apk tool
• Go to asset\fonts and open the .ttf by Font Creator
• Select all of the glyphs
• Go to "Tools" and then "Glyph Transformer"
• Under "Available Features" expand the "Outlines" tree
• Select "Scale" and then you will have two variables for Outlines-Scale
• Enter your desired values (e.g. 95.00,95.00 in order to decrease the size for 5%) and then hit "ok"
• Save
• Compile the previously decompiled apk by apk tool - choose option 11.when being asked if this is a system app,enter "n" and confirm
• Sign the flipfont apk

Great font. I've used Antipasto from my first rom on SGS. Thanks for all others
I've modified clock font too, if someone want it

This is awesome, could you do Geosans in a bold ?

Nice thread! I must have a better look on this fonts next days...

Very Cool man Great thread!

Comfortaa Bold wayt to go!!!

Btw most of them you have aren't TrueType or how its called. They dont display diacritics for my language ľščťžýáí etc . Could you please edit the description :P it?

The Comfortaa Bold is very nice, I LIKE SMALL, even when small still very good readable. But when when white its kinda overlapping together. You dont have something so nice like that small as it, but a pixel more spaces in between?.
(Maybe small ubuntu, tahoma, verdana, bold :P)

And again thanks!
