The process is actually quite simple, to quote:

"Simply take your favorite TTF font and make two copies of it, named as follows:

SCE-PS3-SR-R-LATIN
SCE-PS3-SR-R-LATIN2

And place these on your PlayStation 3 flash in the directory, /dev_flash/data/font/ overwriting the original fonts, then you simply need to go to theme settings and change the font to either rounded or pop to enjoy your new system font!"

Recap Using Mount Alejandro (Related Info: HERE and HERE):

- Mount dev_alejandro
- Open File Manager
- Replace files in /dev/data/font/
- Restart your PS3 System

no you need to use jaicrabs firmware loader. long process.

either way it can corrupt the dev_flash anyways
