Are the fonts limited by characters usable, and the width and height? Also, how stable is this? If you import a font to the M6, it isn't gonna mess anything up, is it?
Tool uses fonts installed on your system, width and height is not modifiable. If some characters don't exist in font they will be replaced with rectangles. Player uses 16x16 and 20x20 glyphs. So just specify font face and weight for the bold (20x20) font and tool will calculate necessary sizes itself.
Well, as for stability... Now my M6 works perfect, hope there won't be any surprises like some during development

A modest proposal for Meizu: open source the firmware!

Also, if it helps any, this thread I made is for getting a good look at the chips, circuitry, and other parts involved in the M6 design. Might give you an idea of what does what:

Thanks!
