Default fonts in  Windows XP

Asked by Drift3r in Font Software, Adobe Type Manager, Font Creator

Tags: , , ,

Here's the deal. A while ago I decided to make a backup on the fonts installed in my system. So I went to Windows\Fonts and drag&drop to another disk.

Normal Windows behaviour would be to copy files (since directories were in different disks). But as it was the "special" Fonts folder Windows decided to move them out. The result was simple ... Windows misconfigured the default fonts.

My problem now is ... when I open an application let's say Adobe Photoshop ou Macromedia Dreamweaver (any application almost) the font used to display application specific text on the screen isn't the default (the aplication goes to the operating system to get the default font wich Windows as replaced by another!) so I end up with a box of properties of an aplication with alot of options which isn't resisable and because of the change in the font I can't see all the options!

It isn't application specific because it happens with applications installed after that problem occurred and the result is the same.

I have already reinstalled the fonts. No change.

Does anyone know how to restore the original "behavior" of Windows XP (the defaults on fonts)?

Anyone? =)Start Free Trial
