Polycom Microbrowser Character Widths

Created by: gork,Last modification on Thu 11 of Jan, 2007 [20:55 UTC]
The following table lists the pixel widths of each character in the pixel font the Polycom 600/601/650 phones use in the microbrowser.

To calculate the pixel width of a string, simply sum the widths of all of its letters according to the table below. If you need to align text into columns, draw data tables, etc., you can scale a 1x1 pixel white .bmp image to create whitespace.

If you need 17 pixels of whitespace, for example, use the following: <img src="1pxwhite.bmp" width="17" height="1"/>

A warning though: Do not use height="0" or width="0" on your padding images as these will cause the browser to re-render the entire page each time such an IMG element is encountered. If you use lots of spacer graphics, this could cause a page to re-render many times.

The keen among you will notice that this list is provided in a handy perl-hash-compatible format. Can you guess what scripting language I'm using?

I'll answer my own question for everyone's benefit (now that I'm cross-eyed).

There are the Character Widths on the Polycom IP 501 displays:

Does anyone have the pixel width of the characters on the IP 501 displays?
