Phoca Font - How to add a new custom font?

Post by nachoo »

Hi all,

I have an odd question that might have been answered already, but am not finding it with a search of the forums nor in the manuals/documentation.

How to add a new font to Phoca Font?

I have tried installing Disko ttf font, taking already Phoca Font supported font files as a guide.

Disko install was ok in Phoca, and Disko font is shown but characters are changed by *!% ....

If I change to a font supported by Phoca everything is ok.

Please any clu/help to correct my mistakes with Dosko font? Did I install it correctly?

Thank you.

Update

Its seems the Disko I have installed -the same ttf I have in my Windows XP- change characters when goes bigger than 12px.

I need to change the size in the Joomla template. Font size changes in Phoca Font changes nothing in the font size.

Any helps will be appreciated.

I must recognize I forgot to add "px". OK I add it .....

But something happens with the Disko ttf font that doesn´t happen with curently available Poca Fonts.

With the same web site and style configuration, only changing fonts in Poca Fonts back end:

Everything ok with Poca Fonts supplied Fonts.

Disk font:

- I installed it according with your instructions and support. OK
- Disko font size performs well up to 19 px. Origial text "20% Dto." "Regalo" "50% Dto." Space is shown as "!", so replacement is "20%!Dto."
- When I change to a bigger font size (>19px) original characters are shown in Disko characters "%$T" ...

:x

I need to use Disko font in my web site. I could try with a similar ttf font.

Funny and strange issue. Seems Disko or the installation I made is the gilty ...

Thanks,

Iñigo
