Configuration Files

<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 4-27.

<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>:

SoundPoint IP 320, 330, 430, 500 and 501

“fontProp_10”

This is the font used widely in the current implementation.

“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.

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 time on the SoundPoint IP 600 is a large font, larger than the one used to display the date, and if you overwrite this default font with a unique font, you lose this size aspect. For example:

to overwrite the font used for SoundPoint IP 500 soft keys for ASCII, the name should be fontPropSoftkey_10_U0000_U00FF.fnt .

to add support for a new font that will be used everywhere and that is not currently supported. For example, for the Eastern/Central European Czech language, this is Unicode range 100-17F, the name could be fontCzechIP500_10_U0100_U01FF.fnt and fontCzechIP600_19_U0100_U01FF.fnt .

When defining a single .fon file, there is a need for a font delimiter, currently “Copyright Polycom Canada Ltd” is used as an embedded delimiter, but this can be configured using font.delimiter. The font delimiter is important to retrieve the different scrambled .fnt blocks. This font delimiter must be placed in the “copyright” attribute of the .fnt header. .fon files are useful if you want
