1 CUSTOMIZING THE USER INTERFACE
1.1 LOADING FONTS (RECORDER ONLY)
Rockbox can load fonts dynamically. Simply copy the .fnt file to the disk and "play"
them in the directory browser or from the Main Menu > General Settings > Fonts.
If you want a font to be loaded automatically every time you start up, it must be
located in the /.rockbox folder and the file name must be at most 24 characters long.
Any BDF font file up to 16 pixels high should be usable with Rockbox. To convert from
bdf to fnt, use the convbdf tool. This tool can be found on Rockbox website (Linux:
http://rockbox.haxx.se/fonts/convbdf, Windows:
http://rockbox.haxx.se/fonts/convbdf.exe).
1.2 LOADING LANGUAGES
Rockbox can load language files at runtime. Simply copy the .lng file (not the .lang
file) to the Jukebox and "play" it in the Rockbox directory browser or from the Main
Menu -> General Settings -> Languages.
If you want a language to be loaded automatically every time you start up, it must be
located in the /.rockbox folder and the file name must be max. 24 characters long.
Rockbox supports many different languages. You can get .lng files at
http://rockbox.haxx.se/lang/. Currently all of these languages are included in the
Rockbox distribution.
If your language is not yet supported and you want to write your own language file,
follow these instructions:
Copy the http://rockbox.haxx.se/lang/english.lang file and start filling in the "new:"
lines.
Name your file <language>.lang, where <language> is the local name for your
language. i.e. svenska.lang, francais.lang etc.
When you are done, submit your .lang file to Rockbox patch tracker.

The file may be 2 lines long for the Player, and 13 lines for the Recorder.
All characters not preceded by % are displayed as typed.
