B77W 0 Posted July 28, 2007 Report Share Posted July 28, 2007 Good Evening, After restoring my computer to factory conditions last week, I had chance to reinstall FS9, and more imporantly PSS's 777. But...I had a display area...is this a missing file, or a font error?!? Cheers, Sam Link to post Share on other sites
mutley 4,498 Posted July 29, 2007 Report Share Posted July 29, 2007 Looks as though you are missing some display fonts Sam? I guess it is a question for JF support after a reinstall attempt. Make sure you have re-installed all the Microsoft updates the NET framework etc you just never know what fingers are in what pies Cheers Link to post Share on other sites
B77W 0 Posted July 29, 2007 Author Report Share Posted July 29, 2007 I need to download the font 'Iris'...but I can't find it anywhere for free...can anyone point me in the right direction! Link to post Share on other sites
MartinW 0 Posted July 29, 2007 Report Share Posted July 29, 2007 Shouldn't the necessary fonts be on the CD? Isn't it just a case of uninstalling the product and reinstalling? Also make sure your 'default flight' is unchanged. When you fire up the sim the aircraft that appears in the select an aircraft window should be the Cessna at KSEA - and if you were to fly it - (you don't have to) it would have the engines running and avionics set to Nav not GPS. This is important for PSS aircraft and very advisable for any add-on in FS9. Important data is gleaned from the default flight. Have you tried a reinstall? Link to post Share on other sites
dgor 0 Posted July 29, 2007 Report Share Posted July 29, 2007 Sam, This is a well-known issue with the 777, I have seen a lot of people complaining about missing fonts. Check the JF support section, and if not ask on their forum because they have definitely seen and corrected this issue in the past.

B77W 0 Posted July 29, 2007 Author Report Share Posted July 29, 2007 Thanks Guys, Martyn sent me the fonts today...but no joy! Link to post Share on other sites
MartinW 0 Posted July 29, 2007 Report Share Posted July 29, 2007 Try the default flight issue just in case. Unlikely to be the cure but it's one variable you should eliminate. Have you tried a reinstall??? Link to post Share on other sites
B77W 0 Posted August 19, 2007 Author Report Share Posted August 19, 2007 Since my post got deleted, i'll sum it up again in short words... I tried the steps you wrote again, but it still didn't work! Link to post Share on other sites
JF_Rich 1 Posted August 20, 2007 Report Share Posted August 20, 2007 Make sure that you don't just drop the fonts in the Fonts folder as sometimes this doesn't work. The best method is to drop them on your desktop and then open Fonts. Go to File>Add Fonts and browse to the fonts on your desktop and add them via this facility. This will ensure that they are detected by your system Link to post Share on other sites
