possible to install nina fonts on PC?

[Guest drblow]

Is it??

I use macromedia fireworks for graphics - & I would like to be able to install the nina fonts, so I could have text on images that matches the phones default font. Is there any way to install the fonts so the PC will recognise & use them??

Its possible, just copy the nina.ttf and ninab.ttf from the Windows directory on your phone to your windows fonts folder!

Ps. Make sure you have the "hide protected operating system files" check box un-checked in Windows.

Does that mean we can also do the reverse, and copy new fonts to the phone? Some apps, maybe mobipocket, have options to select different fonts...

Can't copy the 2 .tff files even if the check in the "hide protected operating system files" box was removed. :roll: I get an error message "Unable to copy file..."

Anyone here successfully copied the fonts?

Nope, 1) Smartphone 2002 only recognises the Nina fonts 2) anything copied into the Windows folder gets deleted on a reboot

I have the Nina fonts installed on my PC at home, if no-one else uploads them i will when i get home (license allowing)

I did it OK. What OS are you on?? I'm on Win XP home, & they copied over first time!

EUREKA!!! :)

...Make sure you have the "hide protected operating system files" check box un-checked in Windows.

...And the "Show Hidden Files and Folders" tab should be enabled. :wink:

Thanks Brody! :(
