This is great, thanks…
BUT, after following all the steps, I can't generate the font. Well, I can, but I'm using the demo, which can only export 20 glyphs, it says, and I don't want to pay $650 for FontLab Studio just so I can port over one font for my iPod…

@CompC:
i'm sorry i forgot to mention the price of the software. i did not want to get into a discussion of the rights and wrongs of using pirated software..
it's upto the user to decide how to obtain the software, i will update the post with a free tool as soon as i find one.

Okay, and I hope you do find one!
In the meantime, since I still don't own FontLab Studio, and I don't know anyone else who does, could you possibly port Myriad, if you have the time? I've always wanted that font on my iPod, even since I was on 1.1.2.

Re: [Font] Tutorials for Porting and Adding Fonts to iPhone
Gaurav or anyone that knows-
I searched and searched but how do I change the system font to Georgia?
I love that font and I even tried pulling the Georgia font from my phone and renaming it to helvetica (big mistake)!
Please advise.
