PDN Crashing; font probelm?

[VenomKisses]

I'm sorry if there is something about this posted already. I've read through a lot of information and still not seen this. I may just be blind.

I have been using PDN to try a new tut I found; that I enjoy. I used a certain font and I couldn't remember the font name so I was scrolling through them one by one. What happens it crashes; and tells me there is a note on my desktop explain what happened.

I sent the e-mail in and restarted my computer.

I left it alone for a while; then went searching for the font. I found it and used it.

Then I went looking through my fonts again; I use it for maybe a minute or two then it crashes on me again.

This is the message I get.

This text file was created because Paint.NET crashed.

Please e-mail this file to paint.net@hotmail.com so we can diagnose and fix the problem.

Remove the one that had just appeared when Paint.NET crashed (just click and drag it from the "Fonts" folder to another folder). The .NET framework throws up its hands at bad fonts, and Paint.NET suffers for it.

See if that helps. :-)

[VenomKisses]

There's only one problem with that; I don't have a font folder in my paint.net folder.

[david.atwell]

Fonts are system-wide, not just for Paint.NET. C:\Windows\Fonts. :-)

There's only one problem with that; I don't have a font folder in my paint.net folder.

And you shouldn't

Fonts folder is in C:\Windows\Fonts

or wherever you have Windows installed.

EDIT: d.a always gets the first post...

[VenomKisses]

Some how I knew this. I can't delete fonts of my computer; unfortunately it's a shared computer. >.< I'll just have to remember to save my work before I go hunting down fonts.

Thanks again everyone.
