Re: problem installing phoca font

Hi Jan, How are you? I am extremely grateful for the phocafont component and plugin. However, there are only three fonts to download with it and I would like more. I unzipped domestic_manners, copied everything to a new folder with my new fonts, both ttf and eot, then I altered the xml to reflect the new fonts names and authors and stuff. I was able to make it work somewhat but I wish there was a better explanation on how to make more fonts for this component.
Also, there is currently no forum topic dedicated to the phocafonnt component, which makes it nearly impossible to find answers on the subject.
Nevertheless, I think this is an excellent component and plug in and I will say so on the joomla extensions board right now.
Can you explain more about changing the xml file? I have placed the ttf and eot files in the zipped folder. I had trouble finding the fonts copywright info to change the license.txt file.
Look forward to hearing from you,

Hi, the problem is my time.

Second problem is, there are no enough free fonts which can be used for redistribution so every user needs to create own fonts :-(

See the video:
https://www.phoca.cz/documents/55-phoca- ... stallation for installation of all three parts (component, plugin, font)

The font package should be made the same like other font packages - just copy the ttf and eot files to the package and set the xml file. Then it should normally work. Be aware the name of font should be lowercase in xml.
