NOKIA CELLPHONE SMALL

=====================



Info

====



This is a font that emulates the bitmap font used by Nokia-based cell phones.

As the name implies ("Nokia Cellphone Small"), this is the "Small" font - used

on some menus, not the data fields (which it used a "big" font).



Modifications

=============



VERSION 4 - Fixed the WORDSPACE and LEADING size. Thanks to Gustavo Rodrigues

(from www.escritaurbana.com.br) for pointing me my mistakes. I also fixed some

mistakes on the documentation (this file).



VERSION 2 - Optimized for Macromedia Flash usage (no hollows) and with

a MAC TTF version provided by Chris Moritz (fieldofaction3@home.com). Many

thanks to him for this conversion that seems to work 100%. You can visit him

Reason + process

================



This was done because 1) I needed to use it on some projects and 2) I saw lots

of people asking for a font like this. So I had some experience in creating

bitmap-emulating truetype fonts (that is, a truetype, vector-based font that

works as if it was a bitmap-based font) and then I decided to do this thingie.

I send a message to my Nokia 6120 cell phone with every characters that the

cell phone had and then scanned the cellphone screens to rebuild it using

fontlab 3.



BE SURE TO USE THIS FONT IN SIZE 8 ON PHOTOSHOP (consider you're using 72dpi).

Since it is a vector-based font that EMULATES a BITMAP font, it's very easy

for this font to appear all wrong. TEST SIZES until it is perfect (not all

blocky), but most probably 8 IS THE SIZE TO BE USED (or multiples of it - 16,

24, 32 and so on).



Copyright and stuff

===================



This is a free font/file, distribute as you wish to who you wish. Do NOT sell

this font within a CD or any other media; it's not yours and you can't make

money of it.



I don't know if the original Nokia font has some copyright or stuff. Hope not.

Anyways, buy a Nokia, and I think everything's gonna be alright. :)
