HOW TO GATHER FONTS FROM WINDOWS 9X

The following assumes that you’re not using a font utility such as Extensis Suitcase® to manage your fonts.

TrueType Fonts

  1. Go to the Start menu, up to Settings and across to Control Panels.
  2. Double-click on the Fonts folder. TrueType fonts used in your document will be located here. Select the required fonts and copy them to your removable media.

Type 1 or PostScript Fonts

Type 1 fonts are usually located in a different folder on your drive or server. You may need to use Adobe Type Manager to cross-reference the font name as it appears in an application’s font menu to the file name listed in Windows Explorer.

  1. Using Windows Explorer highlight your C: drive. You should see a folder named psfonts.
  2. Single click the psfonts folder to view its contents.
  3. Copy both the .pfb and .pfm files to your removable media. Note that the .pfm files may be located in a separate folder within the psfonts folder.

*For specific Windows NT instructions, please contact your Webcom Representative.
