Font vs NSIS (final battle)
  Ok I use, nsis since 2004... but one question is still confuse

How to regist a font ....

I use many methode with many files (fonts.dll,fonts.c...etc)

But none work correctly !

Oh yeah, I copy the Dll in the pluging folder...

Now i use(for registration) :

fonts::registerFont "NEUROPOL.ttf" 
... :down:

in an another time in my life I used


GetTempFileName $R0 

File/oname=$R0 fonts.dll
Push "NEUROPOL.ttf"
>CallInstDLL $R0 registerFont
>
also... :down:

There are above 25 post on this forum about font and registration ... 0 with answer who work for real on Win98,2000,Xp Home and pro,NT,2003server ... ZERO !

I love NSIS, but they are too many post about font... to many question without answer !

It time to make trhis post, the ultimate post about font registration...!

Thank

An ultimate post should contain all the details. All the details include the full scripts used, what exactly happened, what exactly is missing, what OS each method didn't work on, a reference to the ultimate font installation script and an explanation why it didn't work.
