Here's the procedure.I’m still sort of confused as to how you converted a TTF to PFT, I downloaded some of the TTF’s today, but didn’t have any success converting them.
1. Take the ttf file and add it to your Windows Font folder. I have Windows 7 and here is what you do for that. I suspect Vista is the same. I'm house sitting this week so I don't have my XP machine to work with. Anyway, to do that:
Got to Control Panel -> Fonts and copy the ttf file into that folder. This adds the font to Windows. Once in Windows it's available to any program which uses fonts like Word, Font Maker, etc.
2. Open Font Maker, hit the Font Generator -> Choose Font and you'll be presented with the Font Maker Window.
3. On the left side you'll see the Font Options. Select the Font pulldown menu and go down to the font you want. What you're looking at is all of your installed Windows fonts. If you haven't done Step One, it won't work.
4. Choose the point size you want and name it something other than "test", the default. The font name plus the point size is good like RageItalic48.
5. Hit the "Generate" button and you'll see "font created!" in a small dialog box.
6. Go to the PR6SDK\utility\Font Maker\bin folder and you'll see the font you just created with the pft extension.
7. Away you go!
I don't have the ability to insert graphics in these posts but if you want I'll put together a Word doc with screenshots which will make all this a lot clearer.
I'm sure my murky explanation will generate some questions so don't hesitate to ask.
PS: I've put together my Keyboard Only mod but could use some help testing it before I unleash it on the unsuspecting user community. Maybe you could lend a hand once this project is put to bed.
Thanks
