Topic awaiting preservation: Font help (Page 1 of 1)

Some time ago, I made this font using some cheap font creator program.

However, moving to a new computer with a new OS (windows XP), I find I can't install these fonts anymore, as windows insists the font files have been damaged. (Which is not the case, cheapass fontcreatorprogram opens 'em just fine)

Could anyone take a look at these and tell me how I can fix this? loadig and saving them in another font prog may help, but I don't have anything like that present.

worked ok for me.

but you might want to fix the link. there is a < br > at the end.

Later,

C:\

According to this thread on the high-logic forum windows XP expects some naming stuff inside the font file. So open the fonts in the font creator program open the "Tools" menu select "Autonaming" and go through the presented screens. Save and exit. Now it should work.

If you need any help, just yell. Despite still being GTK+1, FontForge is quite rad; it can convert between a bunch of formats and must automatically handle that sort of stuff, as it's never caused any problems.

Nice pixel font, btw.

Rinswind, thanks for doing the RTFMing I should have done.

I'll silently run off now and try that.
