Looking for font addons

Hey, i am looking for an up to date addon that makes you able to change the fonts in the character tab, spellbook, quest log etc.
Im also looking for a combat text addon that can give the same scrolling combat text as the original, i am using fonter atm that simply changes the font of blizzards combat text but when using smaller fonts it looks rather bad (see pic).
So, i want a combat text addon that keeps blizzards original but that allows small fonts like visitor to look good and not all "pixly".



Also, is there a way to change the font of this?



Thanks!

Don't really need an addon to change your fonts.

http://www.vranx.com/font.htm

You can use a mod to change in game fonts. Or you can replace the original game fonts with the fonts you want to use. Create the following folder:
<WoW directory>\Fonts\
Create copies of the font file of your choice, place them in the above folder, and rename them to the following names:
FRIZQT__.ttf (the main UI font - NPC names, player names, spell names, item names, buffs, quest log text, combat text, button text)
ARIALN.ttf (chat font, info text, small text)
skurri.ttf (default unit frame combat text)
MORPHEUS.ttf (mail text, quest log header text)
FRIENDS.ttf (friends list text)

Awesome, but should the "\fonts\" folder be put in the interface or C:\Program Files (x86)\World of Warcraft?
And should the folder really have the 2 x \ in its name?

As it says, it should be put here:
<WoW directory>\Fonts\
That means
..wherever your wow directory is..\World of Warcraft\Fonts\..stuff inside the Fonts folder..
And the name of the folder is just Fonts. The slash ( \ ) is just a separator between folders in a file path.
