What fonts?

I feel like I've looked everywhere for this but cannot find it...

What is the list of fonts available on the Roku? Getting font families from the registry is return a 0 length array for me.

Thanks in advance!

Re: What fonts?

As i remember you can use TrueType or OpenType fonts, it says in the docs somewhere. The problem is that they are huge relative to the channel size you want so you need to download them on channel load.

Re: What fonts?

If you have font editing software you can delete the font sets you don't need, to make the filesize smaller. Most fonts today include entire separate sets of character data for italics, bold, etc etc.
