That actually doesn't work properly Neo, yes the fonts get copied but they do not get registered. Doing it that way you would have to manually open the folder to get your fonts registered.

Place fontinst.exe, fontinst.inf and all fonts in the $oem$ folder and add just this --> "fontinst.exe" <-- to your cmdlines.txt.

Example fontinst.inf contents.

[fonts]

Dungeon.TTF

Lucida Grande.TTF

quillscriptnormal.TTF

bnkgothm.TTF

Unicorn.TTF

Lucida Grande Bold.TTF

POR2.TTF

ROCKY.ttf

Bloodfea.ttf

Librarian_Regular.ttf

Monotype Corsiva.ttf

This is the easiest way. Yes a little messy but very easy to do...

Well, too lame a solution but..

How about creating a file named FontInst.bat and insert these in it.

start %SystemRoot%\fonts

del FontInst.bat

Then moving that file to your

$OEM$\$DOCS\All Users\Start Menu\Programs\StartUp

folder?

Also, do not forget adding all your fonts to your

$OEM$\$$\fonts

folder.

(Don't know if it works, since i don't know how to use cmdlines.txt and fontinst and other stuff, i too am looking for alternates.)

No, that won't work. The easiest way to add fonts is to install them via SVCPACK.INF using fontinst.exe. Create a silent, self-extracting archive to run via SVCPACK.INF containing the following command:

fontinst.exe /F fontinst.inf

The contents of fontinst.inf:

[Fonts]
font.ttf
