Thanks Paul. Fonts all ok now. For the benefit of anyone else listening here's what I ended up with
IMAGE_INSTALL += " \ qt4-embedded-fonts-ttf-vera \ qtui \ " ttf-vera fonts are about 500k in total, but could be cut down to ~100k in my case as I don't really need italics (eg just use Vera.ttf and VeraBd.ttf) Qt libraries were about 25Mb in total which I expect could be reduced a bit, but think I have enough information for now.
