adding fonts???

Recommended Posts

That would make sense. In your earlier post, you thought they were true type fonts.

Hi all, well what a hectic day. I have a few versions of Blazer including one that I paid over 3k for with a dongle. 

I was having all sorts of problems to do the simple task of adding a font. No problems on my old clunker but I cant drag that around with me like my lappy.

Firstl;y my lappy is running win7 64bit. I have the US cutter version but had the same problem with the UK.version.

IVE SOLVED A COUPLE OF ISSUES !! I cant believe how easy this solve is. Firstly there is a free font converter online just google it , youll find it. It will change open source fonts to TTF in a jiffy. The only way youre going to get it into the Blazer program (if all other ways have failed) is to drag & drop the unzipped file to your desktop & then install it from there. Thats it....!!    Id love to know how many people Ive helped. It may convert me to unleash all the other problems Ive come across in various programs. Hope youve been helped.

I too was fighting with this.  I needed to use the "DOCK 11" font for a job I'm doing.  All I could find was an open true font (.otf file type).  SignBlazer would not recognize it.  I then went to www.font2web.com and it converted the otf file to other types for free.  I just installed the .ttf file into my PC's fonts and shazam.  Thanks to all the previous posts in this thread to help me figure it out.  I hope I help any future strugglers.
