Sorry, but I kind of want to stick with "normal" fonts. It's actually pretty easy to do this font change, so if you'd like to do it yourself, I could explain how.
Use UXM to unpack the "font" folder. My process is to make a copy of whatever folder I've unpacked with UXM so that I don't have to do it every time I make a mod. Once you've done that, you can restore the game with UXM (I'm going to assume you use Mod Engine 2 for installing mods).
The files we want are located in font->eu_map->font.gfx and font->eu_std->font.gfx. Those are the paths for English, but if you play in another language, you'll want to use the other folders located in "font".
Open up JPEXS and then open the font.gfx file. Expand the fonts tree so that you'll see the font used by the game.
In the lower right corner, you want to click on the Embed option. Once you do, browse your PC for the font you downloaded. It's looking for a TTF file. If the font you downloaded doesn't have that, then change the "files of type" to All Files.
When that's done, tick the "All characters" box and hit OK. A couple pop-ups will appear, and you want to say Yes to all of them.
Save the file, and you're done! Rinse and repeat for the other font.gfx file. Install as you normally would any other mod.
just out of curiosity do you know what font is used normally in game? specifically the font used to display player names im trying to work out a way to get around the stupid profanity filter so i can use the word Knight without it looking like K***ht
Awesome mod! I was wondering if it'd be possible to do the same with the font used in this Skyrim mod. The font was created by the user I believe, so I'm not too sure how it would work.
Thank you for the mod, the Celtic is definitely my current favorite!

I'm glad you're enjoying it! Celtic is my favorite, too. That Skyrim mod is actually what I use in my game, as well. It looks like there's a link to downloading the font and wouldn't need permission to use it in other mods. I'm working on another mod currently, but when I'm done with it I'll come back to this one.

Calibri font is a finer font. It’s the solution when some texts come out of their box.
