Cannot find font Albertus Extra Bold on this system!

[LarsB]

Hi,
moving to another system (Win 10) I have trouble to link a couple of nice fonts to my programs.
The strange thing.. first it worked. Also when I compile just be pressing F5 it works.
But saving it to a .exe it doesnt. I just took the dafult path, when I installed Hollywood.
Exmple:

Code: Select all

@DISPLAY {Mode = "Windowed", Width = 1280, Height = 600,Color=#WHITE}
@FONT 1, "Albertus Extra Bold", 64, {Engine = #FONTENGINE_INBUILT}

UseFont(1)
SetFontColor(#BLACK)
Locate(300,240)
Print("Hello")

WaitKeyDown("Return")

Also tried it with native engine.

You have one copy of the font in the same drawer with your project and with Thomas same name to make the executables.

Hi Juan,..

nice to meet you here

Unfortunately it doesnt work. Neither with inbuild or native engine. Also when pressing F5 the font is found.

Just tried it with OpenFont which does work. But I dont want to put the font in a extra file.

Ok, I can reproduce this. I'll check what's wrong there.

Thats good to read. I ve got some pretty good fonts. Most by Corel. And a free metal font too.

Btw, it's not related to Windows 10 in any way. It happens on Windows 7 as well. Must be related to the font. I'll check.

Sounds very good. I got some of that kind. i.e. a very cool C64 fontset which I have been allowed to use by the creator.
And indeed happened on my former worfkingplace computer(Win 7), too.

Please allow me to add that it works fine on my Vista Computer.

Code: Select all

- Fix: Some TrueType fonts which contained style keywords in their face name (e.g. "Albertus Extra Bold")
  couldn't always be opened
