Extracting graphics from MBM files

It is sometimes useful to be able to extract graphics from mbm files (perhaps you want to change an icon). This is done with the BMPCONV.exe tool. This method can also be used to convert screenshots taken on the Nokia 92x0.

BMPCONV.exe can be downloaded from Symbian's site.This program runs on a Windows PC. The SDK is available for free via Forum Nokia (by download or on CD).

The next step is running BMPCONV.exe to convert the MBM file into multiple BMP files (one MBM file can contain many frame each of which can be extracted as an individual graphic). This can de done via the command like. An easier method is to first create a text file with the commands in it and use the text file as an argument when running BMPCONV.exe

Place BMPCONV.exe into the a folder. You should then create a new text file in this folder (call in filelist.txt). The contents of this file should be as follows:

/U graphics.mbm
image1.bmp
image2.bmp
image3.bmp
image4.bmp

These commands tell BMPCONV.exe to extract graphics from graphics.mbm and name them image1.bmp, image2.bmp etc. etc. If there are more frames in the mbm file than names you have specified in filelist.txt there will be an error (and the same if there are too many names). However any graphics extracted upto that point are OK. It is therefore a good idea to have a long list of names to ensure you get all the graphics out of the MBM file.

You should then go to the DOS prompt (or equivalent) and go to the folder in which you have stored BMPCONV.exe, the graphics file and the text file. Once there enter the following:

bmconv filelist.txt

It is possible to get information about the MBM file. Entering the following at the command prompt (or putting it in filelist.txt) will give you information about the MBM file.

bmconv/v extraicons.mbm

This will give the following information:

extraicons.mbm is A file net curtain containing 60 bit-maps

Bit-map 1 information:
Pixel size 64 x 50
Twips size 61 x 48
12 Bpp Colour
12 bits RLE compression 19%
..and so on for each bitmap in the file

Thus in the above example (for extraicons.mbm) there are 60 frames or graphics within the file (i.e. 15 different icons).

You can use this technique for any MBM file.

now it's all up to you

[King Ahmar]

Its is possible to add new fronts to your Nokia 92x0. You should use TrueType Font (.tff). You should place new fonts in the D:\System\Fonts directory (you may need to create this). The fonts are then available for use in Word and Sheet. It is advisable not to use too many or large fonts in a file as it will slow down loading of the file. Fonts are also large and take a up a lot of room so you may not wish to use too many new fonts for the sake of memory space.

You can obtain ttf fonts from your font folder on your PC (C:\Windows\Fonts on Windows PC's)and from many website around the internet.
