(For more general information about fonts, please see this
page.)
This document shows you where you should usually be able to
find your fonts under Windows '98 and Windows '95.
If Windows or ATM installed somewhere other than its default
location, you'll need to look there instead of in C:\WINDOWS\ and C:\PSFONTS\.
-
One *.TTF file
is required for each style in the font; these are stored in C:\WINDOWS\FONTS\
For example, the Arial font family requires:
- ARIAL.TTF (normal)
- ARIALBD.TTF (bold)
- ARIALBI.TTF (bold-italic)
- ARIALI.TTF (italic)
-
PostScript
fonts are typically installed and managed by Adobe Type Manager.
A *.PFB and *.PFM file are required for each
style in the font; these are stored in C:\PSFONTS\ and
in C:\PSFONTS\PFM\.
For example, the Times family requires:
- TIR_____.PFB (normal - technically, "Roman")
- TIR_____.PFM
- TII_____.PFB (italic)
- TII_____.PFM
- TIB_____.PFB (bold)
- TIB_____.PFM
- TIBI____.PFB (bold-italic)
- TIBI____.PFM
-
Multiple
Master fonts are a kind of PostScript font. They require one *.PFB,
one *.PFM, and one *.MMM file for each base
font, plus a *.PFM and *.PSS file for each
master instance.
For example, TektonMM requires:
- Zjrg____.Pfm
- Zjrg____.Pfb
