Help with fonts

[nostatic]

hi,
I have an HTC Inspire I have downloaded a better keyboard number eight as well as the unlock key for it. I have also downloaded the open home app. Both five and six as well as the unlock key so that it may become the full version. I have also downloaded font packages from better android developers. My question is, I would like to send text messages with some of the different font styles. And when I downloaded the time packages from the above-mentioned developer it stated that I would have to download the above mentioned items. If I send text messages and use the suggested keyboard with the open home app how can I get the keyboard to use the fonts that I choose to write with, or am I misunderstanding the use of fonts? Would I be able to write a text message with different letter styling from any of the font packs that I have downloaded onto my phone? I would appreciate it if someone can help me out in this matter.
Thanks, David

Welcome to the android forums.

Unfortunately SMS messages carry no font information with them, so even though your phone has custom fonts in the text application, they will only be sent as plain text.

Hello and welcome to AF

I'm not sure if this is possible using the stock texting app but with something like handcent or go or maybe chomp sms there are font options available in those. Then whatever fonts you got off the market would show up under whatever texting app you decided to use(but not stock from what I have tried on my inspire) so the fancy fonts show on your phone only regular font is sent to the receiver of your message
