Remote install fonts

[Adrian]

Hello group,

I'm trying to deploy a .ttf font on multiple XP SP2 computers via scripting.
The problem is that, although the font file is properly copied to the
%systemroot%\Fonts folder,
the font is not available for users logging on the workstations.
Only after if you are logging on as an administrator on the workstation and
checking the font
in the "Fonts" folder the new font becomes available for regular users...


Any suggestions? (& sorry for my english...)

Thanx
Adrian

I've found the solution: you have to copy the font file in the
%systemroot%\Fonts folder
AND
add a Reg_SZ value in the registry for the new font. (in
HKLM\Software\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\Fonts)
