Subkonshiss Posted February 10, 2009 Share Posted February 10, 2009 hey guys, I downloaded and installed a font today as I normally would, and for some reason the font doesnt show in my PDN font section when im typing new text. I know i installed the font correctly because the font is avalaible for me to use using Word. I also installed it twice, once by unzipping the file and dragging and dropping it into the Windows Fonts folder, and the other by Installing it manually from the Windows Fonts folder. in both instances I can see the font using Word but not PDN. how can I fix this? Ive installed plenty of fonts before but Ive never run into this before. I recently updated my PDN to version 3.36, and I believe this is the first time Ive tried installing a new font since Ive updated...could this be the issue? please help. thanks guys.

BoltBait Posted February 10, 2009 Share Posted February 10, 2009 Your new font is probably not True Type (TTF). Paint.NET only supports True Type fonts.

BoltBait Posted February 11, 2009 Share Posted February 11, 2009 Did you restart Paint.NET? It only populates the font drop-down list when you first run the program.

BoltBait Posted February 11, 2009 Share Posted February 11, 2009 What font is it? Is it something off of dafont.com or another site? If so, give us a link.

BoltBait Posted February 11, 2009 Share Posted February 11, 2009 Perhaps it is because the font you installed is only Bold and Italic... there is no "normal" version of the font in the download package.
