Importing fonts

[sinner]

Howdy all. Is it possible to use custom fonts in this program? I have downloaded and installed some fonts into The C:\WINNT\Fonts Directory, but they do not show up in the list of fonts for text objects. Thanks.

Hi,
What is the name or your font? Is it something like: "FontName Bold" or "FontName Bold Italic"? If this is the case the name "FontName" will appear in AutoPlay but "FontName Bold" will not. Basically "FontName Bold" is replaced with "FontName" with the option to select "Bold" as the Font Style.
You also might have to simply restart the system for the Font changes to take effect.

Thanks for the tips Mark. I will try that when I get back to my machine later.

Here is what I had to do in order to make it work. While in the c:\winnt\fonts directory:
Click Tools
Click Folder Options
Click the "True Type Fonts" tab
Select "Show only true type fonts in the programs on my computer"
Click apply and restart. Ater that all my downloaded fonts appeared.
