-
- You can edit the WIN.INI file by hand. TrueType fonts are listed in the
- [fonts] section. The format is:
-
- Font Description=FONTFILE.FOT
-
- By default the FONTFILE is just a file name, and Windows looks in the system
- directory for the font. You need to add a path to the font file name,
- and you can move the file anywhere. Be sure to move both the FOT and the
- TTF of the same name. The TTF is the actual TrueType outline data, and the
- FOT is information about the font compiled into a Windows format.
