FONT CHANGE

Is there a way to change the font within RPG Maker 2003. I don't like the font and want to use my own, and if so how?
There's an .exe floating around for this, but I can't remember the name. Try Google or something. :-\
GW has a few tutorials on it, and a couple are bad. If you really want to change the font you will need a hex editor. You'll have to open up the RPG_RT.exe file for your game and replace all mentions of the current font used in your game with the name of a different font in the windows fonts folder. Sometimes the font name is also too long to be replaced in the hex editor and you will also have to open the font itself in a hex editor and shorten the name that windows recognizes it as.
Some fonts simply don't work, others look bad. Bitmap style fonts generally yield the best results. Monotype is sometimes successful.

Actually, if you look in the stickied topic then you'll find a link to an editor. It's easy to use, too.
EDIT: HERE! About the tenth or so link.

Found the font editor, thank you. Now taking your advice Magi, what about TrueType fonts, they just don't work well?

Either the link broke, or the site broke, because I don't see nothing here but a wierd mess of a differant langauge, any ideas?

It's quite easy: You open your rpg_rt.exe, enter the names of the new fonts, click Test (RM2k RTP needs to be installed for testing) to see how they look, and click Übernehmen to apply the changes.
It doesn't work with most TrueType fonts because the anti-alias makes them look ugly.

My google won't translate, it says there's an error. And there are other programs I may need.Like the power patch, where pretty much I keep getting broken links from here.
