Font Insights

I profiled all the devices in these four families to understand how the fonts progress. Some weirdness, but easy enough to handle. I just need to sort my array of fonts by height so my fontPicker method will properly fit the best font.

So here is what I've found... these size fonts are useful to add as custom sizes to fill in the gaps... in devices that have enough memory. Again, just posting in case this helps anyone... Happy New Year.

Here is the code.. in case this also helps.

//==============================================================
// Load up custom fonts - using EXCLUDE annotations specified in the JUNGLE file

(:smallMem)
function loadMyFonts() {
var sysSettings = System.getDeviceSettings();

switch (PN) {
