📋 About This Mod
Quill
is a font replacer that cover the
Console, UI/Menu, Book, and Journal/Note font.
THIS VERSION WON'T BE SUPPORTED ANYMORE, YOU SHOULD CHECK THE REVISED VERSION. I WILL KEEP THIS MOD AVAILABLE IF ANYONE STILL WANT TO USE THE FONTS.
I've updated the mod to version 2. 2 and it's probably a final update. I'm sure the options that I have provided is more than enough to mix and match the fonts.
There are 5 main file that you can choose, each files include an optional book and journal/note fontconfig that you can pick during the FOMOD Installation. Of course you can skip the optional files if you don't want to change the Main File fontconfig.
If you want another font replacer or you want to combine other font with this mod, you can check my second font mod called Immersive Font Replacer - REMADE. It has a different style approach than this one and easier/more direct installation, more importantly it supports most language.
Not much else to say, just download it and scratch your head during the Installation.
Installation
Use your mod manager.
Compatibility
This mod is compatible with interface mod and any paper or book texture replacer. If you have a mod that add new books or notes to the game, it should be compatible but the text might be out of placement or overlapping. The only mod that is not compatible with this is another font replacer like Typography For Skyrim SE for example.
Making a patch for other font to be compatible is easy. What you need to do is to copy the .swf file from other mod to your Skyrim Data\interface folder, then open the fontconfig.txt and change the settings to make your game use the selected .swf file. You can check an easy tutorial from Sovngarde - A Nordic Font at the bottom page.
