For some mysterious reason it completely refuses to work. Any font mod, actually. I already broke my head trying to figure out why...
UPD: Solved! For Russian version users who forcing the game to be English: just rename "fontconfig.txt" into "fontconfig_ru.txt" and it will start to work properly and fine.
Hi, I have a bug when using this with the book Dragon Language; Myth No More, one of the pages in the middle of the book is a mess, looks like text from an earlier page is spliced on top and its impossible to read. This is overwriting everything so I don't know why it's happening. Has anyone else found this problem or am I one of the unlucky ones?

Ooh, I see below the mod author states books are not covered. I don't know why this happens then.
I use two other mods with this one. Scribes of Skyrim adds over 100 fonts to the books and letter for variety. Font Overhaul - Natural Typefaces for Skyrim adds a few fonts of their own, but I use it because it also improves the texture of the ink so text looks more like it was handwritten with a quill, and less like it came from a printer. If you want to try them both, Font Overhaul has 2 files, one is compatibility patch for Scribes. The great thing is both of them have FOMOD installers that include some popular main menu fonts including Enderal, so they all play nice together and the books look good. I'm not sure which, I think it's Scribes, will give you the choice of including 3 sample books to install that you can use to see all the fonts and test out if the mod is going to work out for you.
There's also mods to improve the paper quality like Elsopa - Papers HD SE. There's also Book Covers Skyrim that updates the covers beautifully, puts text on the cover and spines so you can read the titles, and has a lot of little patches to include books from other mods.
Reading this comment, I'm not sure whether yumuss1999 meant that it's not working on Xbox, or that it doesn't work correctly on the in-game command console. I've found that it's entirely useless for the latter, as it just shows a rectangle in place of every character. Not sure which line in the fontconfig.txt I'd need to edit to revert to the correct font for the console.
Oh I see, they meant the command console. I feel silly for not realising that, but this mod doesn't touch the console font whatsoever. If you're seeing boxes instead of text, chances are it's another mod causing that.
I know the description mentions incompatibility with other font mods, but just to be clear, does this mod cover UI only or books and notes as well? I would like to use 12th Century Bookfonts with this one, to be specific. I would test it myself but SE is to be installed on a PC I will be building once I receive the case.
A very elegant font, thanks for the port. On the default Skyrim UI I think I still prefer the vanilla font, but this font pairs super well with the paper texture of Dear Diary. Complements the cozy paper-journal feel of DD, while still being functional and doesn't draw too much attention to itself, which is a hard needle to thread.
Never felt the need to change the font of Skyrim but had a go at this one anyway and boy or girl, was I in for a surprise at how much this changes the experience. Beautiful. Thanks a lot for sharing this
I included every character that came with the font, including characters for foreign languages, so all I can really say is Polish might be supported. You'll just have to try it out and see. I'm sorry, that's the best I can offer you.
