lbuttery Posted January 1, 2015 Share Posted January 1, 2015 you add fonts to your PC'S fonts folder under C: WINDOWS FONTS Chief uses whatever fonts are installed on the PC been awhile but I think you choose the font using Chief's preferences Lew Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kbird1 Posted January 3, 2015 Share Posted January 3, 2015 Enable double byte characters at the OS level. jon Good to know Jon thanks , this is what I found: Configuring Windows to use double-byte languages. Configure Windows for double-byte character support To configure Windows for double-byte character support: 1. From the Start menu, select Control Panel, Regional and Language Options. 2. From the drop-down menu in the Regional Options tab, select the language you would like Windows to support, and click Apply. 3. In the Languages tab, select Install files for complex script and right-to-left languages (including Thai), or Install files for East Asian languages, depending on the language you would like Windows to support. 4. Click Apply, OK. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
