Problems with Fonts in Windows 98

Myystical1 · 26-January-04, 08:20 PM

Ok heres the problem.
My mom has this font she needs copied over to her computer.
I go into my C:\Windows\Fonts\, and its not there.
I do a search for the font, and it finds it in C:\Windows\Fonts, but when I explore in there, I cant see it! Ive got show all files on in folder options, any ideas why I can see the font when I do a search for it, but not when exploring the Fonts folder?
thanks

Go to your fonts folder and go to folder options.

Under the TrueType Fonts make sure that the Show only TrueType fonts option is not checked off.

Let me know if that works for you.
