Fonts versions

The table is missing cells for the different versions of the .ttf font files or/and his hashes (probably .ttf files never changed though) and when was included in the firmware (probably only a few of them existed in ps3 firmware 1.00)

Specially the font types "pop" and "rounded" that can be selected from [xmb]->[settings]->[theme setttings] and probably was added at the same time than themes support around firmware 2.00

Web Browser fonts references

Located in dev_flash\vsh\resource\silk\etc, dev_flash\vsh\resource\silk_nas\etc and dev_flash\vsh\resource\silk_webkit\etc

fontinfo-Xai.xml

Related with the web browser (the xai version of the webbrowser is named <MicroBrowser> in the .xml), it lists the font types availables by language groups

The file is different in CEX or DEX (in the lines where appears SCE-PS3 Rodin LATIN the CEX version has the font SCE-PS3 Rodin LATIN2 added)

How to display extended CDATA characters in .XML files with notepad++

Notepad++ style configurator

imagefont.bin

As can be seen (after changing byte with in a hexeditor) the first glyph is some kind of circle

This is pixel data, unknown format, but maybe related with how the glyph/character info is stored inside .TTF format

First glyph (pixel data) inside dev_flash/pspemu/flash0/font/imagefont.bin after zlib individual decompression
