[Q] How to resize .9.png ?

I just want to resize a lot of .9.PNG's !
I am making a theme who is for hdpi devices and I want to convert to mdpi devices (our devices) so I need to resize all the PNG's !
I think I must decompile the framework-res from the theme, resize the PNG (I use VSO Image resizer) and recompile the framework-res with the resized PNG's
Is that right ?
Thanks in advance for your help
PS : Sorry for my bad english

First, our devices are LDPI not MDPI
and for the .9.png click here
Héhé ldpi yes ! But in the framework-res from Slade ROM the PNG's are in "drawable-mdpi", my mistake
And I search on google "resize .9.png" and not "edit .9.png", my second mistake x)
Thanks
So I think I can decompile the apk whith "Apk manager", resize the PNG's, and recompile. Is thaht ok ?

You should search for 9patch-resizer on code dot google got com. (Don't have enough rights to post an url)
I made this tool that is basically what you are looking for
Why resize them in the first place?
If you have hdpi images you want to use on a mdpi rom, just put them in a 'drawable-mdpi' folder. Android will resize them automatically. You could have a, for example, 100x100 image and it will be shrunk by the system to the right dimensions.

If you are referring to the lock screen clock then these are PNG files located in framework-res.apk in the folder res > drawable-hdpi they start with zzz_unlock_clock_0 through to zzz_unlock_clock_9.
You can create your own style of png using something like photoshop and replace these png's with your own. You need to decompile the framework-res.apk replace these png.s with exactly the same name then recompile the framework-res.apk and flash it onto your phone.

I thought adding a .ttf file would be enough but that seems a bit more complicated. I think I'm gonna keep the stock clock fonts. Thanks man!

You need to change the emoticons in \system\app\Mms.apk\res\drawable-hdpi
Also, it's not necessary to decompile & recompile to do this.
Either just drop the new pngs into Mms.apk using 7-Zip or make a flashable vrtheme - there's some here you can modify.
