Do you have to install fonts (or move them to WINDOWS$/Fonts Folder) to be able to use them in blitz?
I have XP so that may be the problem. Do I need to add this to the installation of the game? Help plz
Blitz usually works fine with Fonts in the C://Windows/Fonts/ folder, however, occasionally, some do not work.
To guarantee success, Copy & Paste Font into the same folder as your program source(.bb) (or .exe) file, RENAME the font_name.TTF file to the same as the name given if you double-click and open the font and use Loadfont with this copy.
Ok rename it to "FONTENAMEONLY"...! I used the full name *.ttf^^ Thanks. Now I dont need special installation instructions for the fonts =) btw how did you figure that out? tnx!
I had similar problems ages ago and I asked on here. (Threads been lost I think since the website has been revamped).
Good luck!
