Custom Font In DataField

I am able to run my data filed in the simulator no problem with a custom font. Once on the watch I am getting a out of memory error. Has anyone successfully used a custom font in a data field before I spend a bunch of time running memory usage stats?

@PC = 0x1000010A
@PC = 0x1000010A
@PC = 0x1000153C
TVM ERROR:
Out Of Memory Error

On some devices, a CIQ data field is limited to 16k and not 64k, so it would help to know which watch.. Have you tried side loading a release version of the PRG vs a debug version?

Why are you creating multiple thread asking similar questions?

Yes.. What JIM said...

Custom Fonts takes up between 2-3KB of memory. Thats like 10-20% for a DataField (16kb max)

Using the unpacked version worked. The other thread deals with the fonts looking awful in the simulator and device (now that I see it) when I use the BMFont tool but other users applications look pretty good. I am not sure what I am missing with the font settings since I have tried all sorts of combinations to no avail.
