You have to ask pretty please. 
javax.microedition.lcdui.Font.getFont() -- specify size as SIZE_SMALL.

Do you mean lower case characters? There is no API for controlling what the
default text is on any handset.

I mean the character little in size, not lower case

I have programmed since yesterday, can you tell me a concrete example?
I have included javax.microedition.lcdui.*
I have tried ti do Font.getFont(SIZE_SMALL) but compilers give me error.

e:\Programmi\WTK104\apps\Fanizzi\src\Fanizzi.java:19: cannot resolve symbol

symbol  : variable SIZE_SMALL

location: class Fanizzi

    Font.setFont(SIZE_SMALL);

                 ^

1 error

OK, but you do have the javadocs, don't you? You're not going anywhere 
without them. I gave you shorthand-- the method is:

    public static Font getFont(int face, int style, int size)

so the call is

    Font.getFont(FACE_PROPORTIONAL, STYLE_PLAIN, SIZE_SMALL)

There are other options for face and style of course.

Note your code snippet above has a typo--it's calling "Font.setFont" not 
"Font.getFont".
