Fonts

[Jordan]

I had to reinstall windows xp , and then I had to
reinstall all the drivers. This was on a dell computer,
which doesnt make it easy to reinstall all the software. I
installed front page, and I am not able to get the same
fonts as our other computer which is the same model dell
and I used the same frontpage disk on that computer too.
That computer I didn't have to reinstall windows xp. How
do I get all the fonts that the other computer has. The
computer with the fonts has all of the programs from
microsoft office. The computer without all of the fonts
only has word, and excel. Is this way I dont have all of
the fonts. Its not just with front page its with the whole
computer, their just not installed.

Easiest method I can think of:

1. Hook new computer up to network
2. Browse on computer that has fonts you desire
3. Copy from C:\Windows\Fonts to your new computer's C:\Windows\Fonts
directory

Open the fonts applet in Control Panel and ensure fonts are added.

Not sure why they were not installed. It could be that the first install was
a custom or complete and this install was typical. You could also try that,
but it would be quicker to copy and install fonts.

If connecting to net is a problem, see if you can sneaker net by either
burning a CD or zipping and disk transfering.
