OK, in the end this turned out to be a bit of confusion about the Font import procedure. Resolved this by simply starting at the the PC that we wanted to import the fonts to, goin to the relevant FONTS folder on that pc and ten install font and then choosing the location of the font we wanted to install.<br />
<br />
there was confusion for a number of reasonbut thanks for all the inpt which was great in helping exdpand my knowledge in this area.<br />

Points will be awarded now.<br />

xizor answer was the procedure most closey used to resolve this in the end but I think under normal circumstances dragging shold have worked.

Unfortunatly, microsoft decided to not to work with that and the fonts have to be installed for windows to pick them up.

Hi,<br />
<br />
An office have lost the original installation file for a font. <br />
how can I move the font from an existing PC that has the font installation to another new PC (both Windows XP)<br />
<br />
I thought this would be simple but it has not been (when I dragged the font from the fnts folder when I droped it at the destination drive it became more then one file) and suprisingly I cannot find previous postings on this.<br />
I'm sure I'm doing something stupid.<br />
<br />
Thanks<br />

Move fonts from one PC to another (Windows XP)

A font is a particular size, weight and style of a typeface. Each font is a matched set of type, one piece (called a "sort") for each glyph, and a typeface consists of a range of fonts that share an overall design. With the advent of digital typography, font is frequently synonymous with typeface, although the two terms do not necessarily mean the same thing. In particular, the use of "vector" or "outline" fonts means that different sizes of a typeface can be dynamically generated from one design. Each style may still be in a separate "font file" -- for instance, the typeface "Futura" may include the fonts "Futura roman", "Futura italic", "Futura bold" and "Futura extended" —- but the term "font" might be applied either to one of these alone or to the whole typeface.
