Custom Font Problem (Yes I searched first)

[stephan]

Hey guys, I downloaded a .ttf font named "EVE Alpha" and have been trying to use it, however my application is defaulting to Arial, and from what i read something is not being set right. Im new to all this, but an avid programmer, just seems some of the info on how to use the custom uninstalled fonts used the deprecated functions.

Code: Select all

[2]
FontSize=10
FontColor=255,255,255,255
FontFace=EVE Alpha
FontStyle=Bold
StringAlign=center
StringStyle=NORMAL
AntiAlias=1

[HeaderLabel]
meter=string
meterstyle=2
text="Account Settings"
x=225
y=4r

My Eve.ttf is located at @Resources\Fonts\Eve.ttf
"Font name: EVE Alpha" according to the font viewer

Thanks for the help this is driving me crazy

this would return the correct FontFace setting for Rainmeter.

if it does not help: some fonts have some kind of digital rights management. a Google search for embeddable flag ttf would provide info about that.

thank you so much, turned out the StringStyle=BOLD was what was throwing it off. if i can find a karma type rating for you ill give you a +1
