    Posted: 22.May.2008 at 15:35
I have just installed my Land Desktop software to a new XP machine. We do survey and engineering drawings. I am missing many fonts and styles on the new machine. I must also have some True Type fonts that I have used in the past. How do I get these over to the new machine and where do I put them? Iam not very familiar with the styles and so forth, but I do know how to get around on the computer, just don't know what I need and where. Thanks in advance for any help.

For SHX fonts you just need to copy the .shx files to your new PC. In case of TrueType fonts you need to install the TTF font files in Windows (Control Panels > Fonts > Add) - AutoCAD will then use them automatically.
