GUI font problem?

[Jhou]

Hi,

When I run my MFC application compiled using VC 6.0, I found the GUI window
is much bigger than I expected, even I have righ display resolution setting.
After inspecting the window, I found that the texts of all the controls are
bigger, but the text on the menu is normal (small). I thought I have not
included related fond component in my XPE configuration. But the MS Sans
Serif font used in my dialog window property is included in XPE image.

What component is missing?

Thanks.

Hi,

You have not included right font there are few components with similar names.

Thanks for your help.

I have selected all the fonts and code pages from English Language support
Component. But still my regular MFC applicaiton does not have right display.
Is a special combination of fonts and code pages requred?

I really have found any definite solution from the posts I have read so far
for such seemingly easy problem.

Jhou,

Make sure all these font components are included in your build:
Fonts: serife_fon [Visibility=1000]
Fonts: seriff_fon [Visibility=1000]
Fonts: sserife_fon [Visibility=1000]
Fonts: sseriff_fon [Visibility=1000]


Also, you may use Brad's FontTracker component from www.xpefiles.com to find out what font is missing.

Also (last resort), make sure your app works properly on XP Pro or XPProEmulation build (www.xpefiles.com).

I have similar problems, and I found that selecting *all* fonts can lead to
problems as well. There are components that actually work as a mapping for
missing fonts, thereby giving trouble if you don't want a substitution.

Sorry if I can't be more specific, I haven't completely figured it out
myself.

Thanks.

It seems that it works by adding only four fonts you suggested.
