How to transfer your Windows fonts to Xandros

 

If you dual boot, (Xandros and any version of Windows), your Windows fonts can be easily moved across to your Xandros installation.

 

  1. Just open Control Center, Launch > Control Center > Control Center.
  2. Click the + next to Display to expand the list. Click the + next to Theme to expand the list, and click Font Installer, enter your administrator password.
  3. At the bottom of the Font Installer window, click the Add Fonts button then navigate to your windows drive (C:), navigate to the windows/fonts folder, (Typically C: windows or winnt/Fonts), select the font or fonts you wish to import.
  4. You can select all the fonts in the folder by clicking on the first one listed, then, holding down the Shift key, clicking on the last one in the list, or select some but not all of them by clicking on the first one you want, then holding down the control key, clicking on each remaining font that you want, one at a time, until all desired fonts are highlighted, then click Open.

 

 

Alternatively, you can copy your windows fonts folder to a usb stick and install from there.

 

If you are not dual booting but have some old windows applications lying around on CD (eg desktop publishing, Microsoft Word or Works) you sometimes find that they too have a fonts folder that you can use.
