If you installed Visual Studio 2010 on your PC, you can simply go to "C:\Windows\Fonts\" dirctory..
and select this Family Font "Segoe WP" which stands for Segoe Windows Phone.
And this font is useful for themes devs and apps devs to create a real WP7 theme or app.
For those who do not have VS2010, ;)simply download the attached file.

How can I put those fonts to WP7?

how do you change the font sizes in WP7 , I posted this in another thread ,but maybe you guys know, in contacts , the font color is the same as the tile color , can I change the font color in contacts and still have a different tile color , also the size of the font in contacts is so small you need reading glasses to see it, where in the registry can I change the sizes?

Isn't this font identical to Segoe UI, the primary UI font for both Windows Vista and 7, which you therefore certainly already have on your system?
