fheuvel Posted December 27, 2011 Share Posted December 27, 2011 I seem to have trouble selecting a font in FP Expression (3.1.13). I have created a separate folder with all the resources for my template (image, font). But when I select a new font nothing changes. In the Font setup and Library window on the left I can see the new font name, but under the # it says 0. Only after closing and re-opening the template this changes to 1, but the font used is still the default Arial. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FreightTrain Posted December 28, 2011 Share Posted December 28, 2011 fheuvel, A couple things to consider. 1) True Type Fonts are the only font type you can use with Expression. What font type is the font in question? 2) Only the "Masking Text" Expression technique will actually show the font. All of the other techniques only use the font as a method to format the personalization; as the images used for the personalization needs formatting defined as well. Hope this steers you in the right direction. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fheuvel Posted January 19, 2012 Author Share Posted January 19, 2012 Thanks Richard, Solved the problem by selecting an Arial look-a-like ttf font. The Arial font I used first was a ttf font. Seems that not all ttf fonts can be used. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
