totoymola Posted February 20, 2005 Share Posted February 20, 2005 Hmm... I think not all. Because I tried installing pfm fonts, and it didn't work. Or maybe there's something wrong with my inf. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bufoncosmico Posted March 5, 2005 Share Posted March 5, 2005 sorry, but i still dont get it using the fontinst.exe method; i need to put in a sfx all the fonts, fontinst.inf, and fontinst.exe, make the sfx extract everything to the fonts folder in windows and then call the command to register the fonts?if so:what should be the comment in the sfx?i run it in the runonce.cmd, or in the cmdlines.txt ?

bufoncosmico Posted March 15, 2005 Share Posted March 15, 2005 ok, i finally got it to work...i dunno if its the right or the easyest way, but this work for me:made 2 sfx, one to copy my fotns to the fonts directory, and another sfx with the fonts, fontsinst.exe, and fontsinst.inf to decompress to a temporary folder, and then run fontinst.exe /f fontinst.inf. All that in my RunOnceEx.cmdthats it, and it work perfectly... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
totoymola Posted March 15, 2005 Share Posted March 15, 2005 made 2 sfx, one to copy my fotns to the fonts directory, and another sfx with the fonts, fontsinst.exe, and fontsinst.inf to decompress to a temporary folder, and then run fontinst.exe /f fontinst.inf.You dont need your first sfx. Your second one is enough. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

asbsamsf Posted March 19, 2005 Share Posted March 19, 2005 Create SFX fonts archive Utilities- use at your own risk, i'm not a programmer .- download the SFXfonts.exe, place it anywhere, and make sure you have all fonts in the same folder.- move Fonts.exe to any dir on your UAXPCD.- you can call Fonts.exe from RunOnceEx.cmd or from Cmdlines.txt it's up to youSFXfonts.exe Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kelsenellenelvian Posted March 19, 2005 Share Posted March 19, 2005 Actually in the inf file is named fontinst.inf all you have to do is call fontinst.exeMake sure your folder has the fonts, fontinst.exe and fontinst.infThen all you need to do is call fontinst.exe.

spacesurfer Posted July 1, 2006 Share Posted July 1, 2006 @mikoristSo why do you need installfont.exe when you are using fontinst.exe in your script?what is the difference? what is the usage for installfont.exe? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest mikorist Posted July 1, 2006 Share Posted July 1, 2006 (edited) You noticed it well ! No difference??? I dont no !! i rename installfont.exe to fontinst.exe calculated (Orginal name in Microsoft cab is installfont.exe)P.S.i've found a tool "installfont.exe" in wpi package, usage:installfont.exe should be=fontinst.exe ???See in ResHack for example :installfont.exe from IE6.0 SETUP from "FONTCORE.CAB" VALUE "CompanyName", "Microsoft" VALUE "FileDescription", "fontinst" VALUE "FileVersion", "1, 0, 0, 1" VALUE "InternalName", "fontinst" VALUE "LegalCopyright", "Copyright © 1997, 1998 Microsoft Corp. " VALUE "OriginalFilename", "fontinst.exe" VALUE "ProductName", "Microsoft fontinst" VALUE "ProductVersion", "1, 0, 0, 1"And i see in this post:"fontinst.exe" is a small application from microsoft; Copy the font into the %windir%\fonts folder and then, register the fonts. The font is available even before the reboot. also send a message to all top-level windows in the system. This message notifies other applications that the font table has been added a font. VALUE "FileDescription", "fontinst" VALUE "FileVersion", "1, 0, 0, 1" VALUE "InternalName", "fontinst" VALUE "LegalCopyright", "Copyright © 1997, 1998 Microsoft Corp. " VALUE "OriginalFilename", "fontinst.exe" VALUE "ProductName", "Microsoft fontinst" VALUE "ProductVersion", "1, 0, 0, 1"but difference from orginal in "FONTCORE.CAB"is in size :39,0kb=fontinst.exe (from url up)44,5kb=installfont.exe (from "FONTCORE.CAB")I DONT NO WHO EAT UP 5,5KB IN fontinst.exe (from url up) IN SAME "ProductVersion", "1, 0, 0, 1" Edited July 4, 2006 by mikorist Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
