Install External Fonts in Opera Mini


No doubt that Opera Mini is the most popular mobile browser. Opera mini compresses the web page to make it compatible to view on mobile device, it also allows user to synchronize bookmarks and browsing through opera link. This browser is available for almost all phones around us. If you are Opera Mini user then you might be aware that it displays some boxes when it comes to display some external fonts which are not installed on your device. But latest mobile phones come with scripts to display foreign fonts so you don't have worry. But, if you use comparably old phone then you might have this problem. And here is the solution too, just follow the simple steps below to install foreign fonts in Opera Mini:

  • Run Opera Mini
  • Go to Option > Enter Address
  • Type about:config in there and click ok to continue
  • You will be taken to Power user option for Opera Mini browser
  • Scroll the page down and find Use Bitmap font for Complex Script
  • Now, Select Yes from the combo box and click on save

You are done, now you may not have trouble reading texts on external fonts.

This feature of Opera Mini converts the complex and foreign fonts to image and illustrates on the page. I had trouble reading Nepali characters before I knew this feature.
