Custom font set with SBL_BLit and screenshots

[Jared]

I enjoy the versatility of SBL_BLit font with the characters it has across Greek, Hebrew and modern languages.  With the new release of AndBible I set it as default and would like to share how it looks on my phone:

SBL_BLit ScreenShots (Nexus 5)

I would vote toward a font like this handling the default display of AndBible, any discussers on this topic?

Below is my stylesheet (the non-primary color palette is not optimized yet):  

/jsword/fonts/SBL_BLit.ttf  from download here

/jsword/css/style.css

@font-face {
font-family: 'SBL_BLit';
src: url('../fonts/SBL_BLit.ttf') format('truetype');
}
/* make foreground text black */
body {
color: #000;
font-family:"SBL_BLit";
}

/* also make the headings grey */
h1, .heading1 {
color: #666;
}
h1 a, .heading2, .heading3, .heading4 {
color: #999;
}
/* make cross references dark grey */
a {
color: #333;
}
/* use a more browny colour for redletter otherwise it is too bright */
.redLetter {
color: #3D1E06;
}
/* make the verse numbers grey too */
.verseNo {
color: #999;
}
/* change Strongs to dark grey so as not to clash */
.strongs {
color: #333;
}

Another version of the styling with text justification and more clean up.

@font-face {
font-family: 'SBL_BLit';
src: url('../fonts/SBL_BLit.ttf') format('truetype');

font-weight:normal;
font-style:normal;
font-stretch:normal;

}
/* make foreground text black */
body {
color: #000;
font-family:"SBL_BLit";

text-align: justify;
text-justify: inter-word;
margin:0 15px 0 15px;

}
/* also make the headings grey */
h1, .heading1 {
color: #666;

font-family:Sans;
font-style: italic;
margin-left:-10px;

}
h1 a, .heading2, .heading3, .heading4 {

color: #666;
font-family:Sans;

}
/* make cross references dark grey */
a {

color: #999;
font-family:Sans;
font-style: italic;

}
/* use a more browny colour for redletter otherwise it is too bright */
.redLetter {
color: #3D1E06;
}
/* make the verse numbers grey too */
.verseNo {
color: #999;

font-family:Sans;

}
/* change Strongs to dark grey so as not to clash */
.strongs {

color: #0041B6;
font-family:Sans;
}
/* footnotes? */

I'd like to use SBL Lit with AndBible & BibleTime M*.

How do you install the font, without rooting your device?

No  need to root!

Just create the css and fonts directories on the /sdcard portion of your storage under /jsword

Then drop the font you want to use in "fonts"

Then my CSS code pulls from that directory.  So really it is not installed, just called upon in AndBible.

Another way to specify a custom font for And Bible is to use the Font Framework.

Cheers
