Is there any way to make the system font bigger? I need my contact to be with bigger letters, so my dad can see them more easily?

After you ported the font, start by double clicking the 0-glyph. This will bring up a window with the path of the font, just drag (or more with the arro keys) it down a bit and then do the same for the the other numbers (dont forget " : "). Then put the font on the phone and test it, if it's still to far high up then keep pulling it down.

Save your exisiting project font and then restart FontLab. Now you can open up the project again and save successfully. This is a bug with FontLab 5.0.2 and Mac OS Leopard.

Enjoy!

I found this only happens if i change the default save location on the save popup

Sorry for spamming, but: Can I request port of two fonts: Freehand and Seoge UI? I can send you font files, if anybody do that

To fix the problem with fonts getting cut off, just make sure that they (the old helvetica and the new font) match up in the "TrueType-specific metrics" tab under "Metrics and Dimensions". Same command to open it. Command Alt F.
