You can add additional fonts to your PPC by using Windows CE Services to drag True Type fonts to the PPC \WINDOWS\FONTS directory. The PPC file conversion subsystem will convert the True Type font into a raster .FNT file. Your PPC will prompt you for the conversion .FNT sizes. Be careful how many sizes you select because .FNT font files are created for each font, you can easily eat up your RAM storage.
Note: You may want to limit your size selection to 8, 9 and 10. It appears the Note Taker only recognizes these sizes. The WinCE 2.0 HTML and Help viewer subsystems MAY recognize larger type sizes, check is out if your developing for them.
