Modifying a Custom Font Directory
Modifying a custom font directory lets you change the specifications for the selected font directory in the Xconfig font database. You can change the font type from directory to server, change the name of the font directory, and add a new font database file (.fdb) to this directory.
|
Warning! |
When changing the name of a font directory, you must add the font files (.fon) to that directory. |
If you are changing a font directory in the database, you need to know the name of the directory and the name of the font database file corresponding to the new font directory.
|
Note: |
This functionality is not available in TSE mode. |
To modify a custom font directory:
- In the Custom Fonts pane, click Modify. The Add/Modify Custom Fonts Settings dialog box opens.
- From the Font Type drop-down list, select Directory to display directory settings.
- If you want to rename the directory, in the Font Directory box, type the new directory name.
- If you want to change the existing font database file, in the File Name box, click Browse and point to the new file (.fdb). This custom file is created by Xconfig and stored in
- Program Files\Hummingbird\Connectivity\version\Default User\Exceed\
- where version is the version number of the Hummingbird product.
- If you want to change the status of the font directory, in the Status area, select the new status of the font directory. You can select Load, Keep, or Inactive .
- If you want to make matches to this directory using its physical font name as well as its logical font name, select the Match Physical Font Name box and click OK. The Custom Fonts pane appears, listing any directories or servers in the installation database.
- If you want to modify another font directory, repeat steps 1-6.
