    How to add Font files to project

    Hi,

    How do I add a ".ttf" font file to a project? I tried the obvious !
    press insert key
    navigate to folder (Windows\Fonts)
    select file (MS Sans Serif - I've tried other TTF files as well)
    click Add button

    Nothing gets added to the files list of my project. Also, with a completely brand new project the "save" icon doesn't get enabled, implying that SUF doesn't recognise that anything has changed.

    I have searched the help docs, this forum and can't find anything. Do I need to add fonts to the External tab, primer files ?

    I'm using SUF 9.0.4.0.

    Cheers,
    Dave

    The Fonts folder is protected by Windows.

    If you have a license to redistribute the Microsoft font, then try to add the file from the folder where you originally downloaded it... When adding the font file from a different folder than C:\Windows\Fonts, it should be accepted by Setup Factory, and the target folder will be set to %FontsFolder% automatically:
