Wardie1993 Posted April 19, 2020 Share Posted April 19, 2020 Basically, I have installed multiple different typewriter fonts onto my laptop, due to the fact that the standard pre-loaded fonts are, frankly, pretty crap looking if you're trying to make an authentic typewriter effect. Yet, despite the installed fonts showing up in the font list, the text is not being displayed in any of the typewriter fonts upon selecting them, rather, they simply appear in a generic font, Arial, I think. Am I missing something here? Do I have to do something with the fonts in my VideoPad folder to get the text to actually take the form of it?

Nationalsolo Posted April 19, 2020 Share Posted April 19, 2020 Hi AFAIK VP gets it fonts directly from the "Fonts" folder. They obviously must be there as you say they appear in the font list but Do the fonts show up in the list as A FONT........... If they do and are selected do they show up in the text editor correctly? What version of VP are you using and which fonts did you install? Tested a new font here just now. Loaded the ttf file from the website and dropped it directly into the font folder. Opened VP and the font (Typewriter-Remington-Riviera) was present in the list; could be used..... and could be exported. I am using Version 8.23 Nat Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wardie1993 Posted April 19, 2020 Author Share Posted April 19, 2020 I am using V 8.31 Edit: For some reason, it has started working now, I don't know why it wasn't before. Edit II: Is it possible to lock the preview window into a certain size? I don't want to have to resize it every time I start VP. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
borate Posted April 20, 2020 Share Posted April 20, 2020 The window should remain the same size as when the program was last closed. It does here in version 8.32. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wardie1993 Posted April 20, 2020 Author Share Posted April 20, 2020 Hmm, it doesn't seem to do on mine for reason. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
borate Posted April 20, 2020 Share Posted April 20, 2020 v8.32 here and as you can see below, the window size/approximate position holds between restarts - at least for a time. Sized window, closed VP, restarted VP, launched a project. Untitled.mp4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nationalsolo Posted April 20, 2020 Share Posted April 20, 2020 Hi Version 8.32 Unless you close them before shutting down VP then either (or both) preview screens will remain in their undocked size when you reopen VP even if you have deleted the data on shutdown and start a new project on reopening VP. This is true even if you restart your PC. Opening VP will still show one of both undocked preview windows. Nat Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
