This modpack provides mods with dynamic display. Mods are :

signs_api: A library for the easy creation of signs;
font_metro: A font mod used as default font (includes uppercase, lowercase and accentuated latin letters, usual signs, cyrillic and greek letters)

Extra fonts

Metro and Tiny Cursive fonts are provided in Display Modpack (in font_metro and boards mods) but you can add more fonts by installing font mods. Be aware that each font mod comes with numerous textures. This can result in slowing media downloading and/or client display.

Extra font mods can be found here:

OldWizard: An old style gothic font.
Botic: A scifi style font.
