This saw release mostly to complement my Final Fantasy V and VI Advance projects. However, it's also
for players who would prefer to experience Final Fantasy IV as the original game with slightly
enhanced graphics, rather than FFIV: Complete Collection's total visual overhaul.

While this is virtually identical to Dragonsbrethren's project "European Font Enhancement", the aim
of my project was to widen the the accented vowels and ñ in the thicker font variant patch.
Dragonsbrethren never intended his patch to be played in one of the non-English languages, so the
accented characters were left slim.

As for why we're so obsessed with the European version of FFIV Advance... It fixed a myriad of bugs
and text issues that are present, and were never fixed, in the original US release. If you must play
FFIV Advance, play the European version. (But please, by all means, play the Steam version instead.
Even better if you use the SNES to PC Music mod, and the 20 FPS version of the Low Battle FPS Fix.)

Consider combining this patch with Bregalad's Sound Restoration mod
https://www.romhacking.net/hacks/969/ and Dragonsbrethren's European Stripper Restoration.

There are 2 patches contained in this archive. Choose 1 of the following.

 - FFIVA_EUfontlift_SLIMv0-1.ips: Has an updated font that preserves the width of the retail
    European GBA version. All five languages will be perfectly readable.

 - FFVA_EUfontlift_THICKv0-1.ips: Widens most of the lowercase letters, giving it a feel more like
    FFV and VI Advance. There will be spillover issues with the four non-English languages.

Overview
========
- There are 2 patches: one that slightly widens the 8x8 font, and one that slightly beautifies it
  while keeping it the same width.

- The hammer icon is now represented by a hammer, rather than a wrench.

- The shield icon is replaced by the one from FFV and VI Advance.

- In the English translation only, Yang's command "Power" is now "Focus", and the term "Babel" is
  now "Babil".
====================================================================================================

====================================================================================================

- Updated the following characters in the slim 8x8 menu font:
