How to increase the range of choice of "All Fonts"?

[jol]

Hi
It seems that the list of "All Fonts" available under the typewriter properties function is quite limited. Besides the regular Courier New, Times New Roman and Arial, the list of fonts under "All Fonts" appear to begin only with 'A' - up to 'Arial Unicode' on my computer. Anyway to reflect the full list of fonts that I have? Or at least to choose which fonts are worthy of being under the list?

BTW, Great programme, worth every cent, great value.
Thanks and Regards,

I'm afraid you've lost me. The properties toolbar for the typewriter tool has a drop list with a full range of installed fonts. What are you talking about where it mentions (All Fonts)?

There are the recently used fonts at the top of the list and below them is the list with "All Fonts" installed on your machine. There is a separator with exactly this name in it.

jol,

Please note that there is a slider next to the font names so you can use it and scroll through all fonts you have.

Found it, thanks for the quick reply.
The screenshot is attached. The slider can't be seen, but it works.
Is it because i have too many fonts?

jol,

There is no attachment to your post. It probably got filtered as it was not in a .zip archive.
I don't have many fonts installed on this machine but see how my font list looks.
Yours should look similar despite the number of fonts installed.
Also please make sure you have the latest version of the viewer installed

Hi Stefan,
oops, ok, here it is zipped up.
Mine doesnt' look like yours. It's blank where the slider ought to be.
Have just re-installed again, version is 2.0 (build 41.5). Font count is about 350 on the comp (don't know if all available on the programme) Something wrong with the interface?

jol,

That is indeed strange as I do remember the slider being there for quite some time (I might be wrong though, one gets used to good stuff quickly ).
As a suggestion to solve this, please update to build 42 and see if the sliders will appear.

And once again this should in no way be related to the number of fonts. What is shown in this list is taken from what Windows says to our software, so they should all be in that list.

Regards,
Stefan

Hi Stefan,
Great! Installed the build 42 as you said, and the slider appeared.
Much Thanks
