PowerPoint Output in VERDANA
I have FONT='VERDANA', SIZE=28 yet, after opening up in PowerPoint, highlight the title lines, its 'COURIER NEW"? AND "not very presentable".

Any ideas? We are working on 7.6.4, do I need to add the Verdana font from somewhere to the server somewhere??

WF has a limited number of fonts available out of the box. By default, Times New Roman, Arial and Courier are your best bets. Other additional fonts can be added to the server. References to the procedure and documentation can be found on this thread.

This is for PDF and Pstscript, and I don't know exactly how this translates to HTML and Excel/Word/PPT, but I would assume it to be the same. HTML may only require the font to be installed on the local browser machine.

And the warranty was only for 1 year! Smiler

Didn't even notice that it was your name on the thread - I just remembered that I had responded to that one a while back--
