Hi everyone,
Could you please tell me if there is a way to display a dashboard with a custom font on a phone? I have a dashboard with a fancy digital font. It works perfectly if I run it in Windowed mode or on a secondary/specific monitor but when I display it on a phone the custom font is not sent and I get a generic I-don't-know-what font instead.
Hi ! You need it to be a valid ttf font, browsers are less tolerant than windows about malformed fonts, do you have a link to the specific font so i can take a look if it has something specific ?
My goodness, the Wotever himself! Thank you very much for a prompt response.
Ages ago I have played around with creating fonts a little but frankly I don't know what makes a particular font valid or not and why 🙁
For my dashboard I used '16 segments' digital font from https://www.dafont.com/16-segments.font and I have also seen some dashboards using 'DS-Digital' https://www.dafont.com/ds-digital.font . None of them were sent to phone. I am using Windows 10 and Sony Xperia Z3 Android phone as my gaming display but it wasn't working on a newer Motorola One Vision either.
For now I simply created pictures of each gear and it works well but it might not be as efficient, let alone professional, as font based I think.
