Adding Font to Windows Phone 7

Is it possible to add Custom fonts to Windows Phone 7 system fonts? I have Windows Phone 7.5 (Lg C900) and it doesn't support Georgian font. I want to add font to Windows Phone's OS, not to an application. Any ideas?

yes it is possible in windows phone. Add custom font file in your solution.And then add following line of code in App.xaml

<Application.Resources><FontFamily x:Key="QUARTZMS">/Fonts/QUARTZMS.TTF</FontFamily></Application.Resources>

It is not possible to add new fonts or language support to Windows Phone 7 beyond what is already available. Windows Phone 8 does have additional language support, though.

The official MSDN docs have a great list of all supported languages and illustrate the differences between the two platforms...
