Ruud Hermans Posted October 7, 2006 Author Share Posted October 7, 2006 I'll refresh Windows if it keeps messing with me like that. Ruud Hermans Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chocolate570 Posted October 8, 2006 Share Posted October 8, 2006 Did you try restarting the computer?Some versions and updates of windows cause changes in the windows/ directory to be restarted before they take effect.Also, make sure the .ttf was extracted and uncompressed. :)Choco Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
justsomeguy Posted October 9, 2006 Share Posted October 9, 2006 You can also explicitly install the font. Go to the control panel, open the Fonts icon, and under the File menu will be an option to install a new font, which will also copy the file to the appropriate folder.
