Mr.J!M Posted August 12, 2004 Share Posted August 12, 2004 In your CD create a folder$OEM$\$$\Fonts\YOURFONT.TTFthis will copy all your fonts into %WINDIR%\Fonts\ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alanoll Posted August 12, 2004 Share Posted August 12, 2004 that's not all you have to do...You either have to find a way to open the FOnts folder and close it, or you have to import some registry entries when copying. Otherwise Windows won't know there are fonts. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jrzycrim Posted August 12, 2004 Share Posted August 12, 2004 Along with placing the font in the Fonts directory, you have to add your font here:[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\Fonts]"Font Name"="Font file"I think you can even add fonts that reside some place other than the fonts directory if you give a full path to the file.

benners Posted August 13, 2004 Share Posted August 13, 2004 For font file put the name of the font i.e [HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\Fonts]"Arial Bold Italic (TrueType)"="ARIALBI.TTF" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
