Is there a built-in small font to activate on the CFA835?
The standard text allows 20 Characters x 4 Lines.
However I notice when going into the setup screen by pressing the Up and Down at power on a menu system is displayed which uses a very nice a small font.
I looks like this increases the number of characters per line to about 40, and the number of lines to 8.
This would be nice to double to amount of information per screen.
Is this font size available through a standard command set? (or does it uses direct pixel writes??)
If so, is there documentation on this?

Thanks in advance.

Thanks for your question. Unfortunately that font is part of the bootloader and is not accessible during normal use.

For a smaller font you can load a custom font via uSD card as described in the datasheet starting on page 54.

We can create custom firmware with a custom font for the CFA835, it goes through our custom part process and would require an engineering fee. If you're interested in that, please fill out our custom part form here: https://www.crystalfontz.com/products/custom-lcd-oled-epaper-displays.php
