Bolder Fonts on an Xteink Running Crosspoint
![[Two Xteink X4 classics, tiny e-book readers, held in differently sized hands. One is white and held in a large hand, one black in a small hand]](https://shallowsky.com/blog/images/screenshots/xteink/PXL_20261011_214654158sm.jpg)
I found Crosspoint's only preinstalled font, Noto, too thin and spidery for easy reading. But getting new fonts turned out to be a little complicated.
You can find some pre-built .cpfont files (the format Crosspoint
understands) in
crosspointreader.com/fonts,
and some more in
Crosspoint
font releases. No previews, and I couldn't find any way to
download everything (short of cloning the whole repository and then checking
out the appropriate release SHA) so you have to just guess at
which font face names might fit your needs,
and then download files one at a time for each face and size you want to try.
