Hello everyone,

I've got the following problem:

A customer has updated his PC to Windows 7. So he reinstalled FM12 on his new system. After that he wanted to install his fonts he had before on his old pc.

I dont know how I could help him, so I would appreciate all help I can get.

He told me that there are pretty much *.pfb and *.pss files. I have absolutly no idea how those fonts can be imported.

Are those files the correct ones? Or does the font files have other endings?

Thank you so much for helping! And sorry for my bad english as well 😉

greetings - Markus

This is a Windows function nothing to do with Frame. Tell him to copy and

install from the old computer.

Yes, the font files would be in the Windows \Fonts folder on the old system.

If the old fonts are available as .otf, .pfm or .ttf files, simply right-click on the file. If Win7 thinks it's an installable font, one of the options will be "Install". Select it.
