Hello, Here is my goal. I have a network folder which contains a whole list of fonts, over one hundred. The folder is updated regularly with new fonts for customers. What I require is a login script which will install all the fonts from the network folder to the workstation. Compressor Aerodynamics Cumpsty Pdf Free here. If the fonts already exist I would like them skipped or overwritten.
Jan 31, 2011 Type 1 fonts and Windows 7. And the fonts do not display in my Adobe applications. The fonts installed normally but didn't show in programs.
The main thing is not receiving a dialog box which states they're being installed or prompting you to overwrite them. The problem I have with the script I'm using below is it prompts to user to overwrite each and every font. Can anyone provide me a script or point me in the right direction. Example script below. Hmmm the answer comment has the below script but I get an error when I go to run it.
The error I get is..object required 'ObjShellApp' Any idea why.here is the code below. Obviously I changed the UNC path to a valid one where the fonts reside. Const FONTS = &H14& Set objFolder = objShellApp.Namespace(FONT S) strNewFontsFolder = ' tcd01 netlogon newfonts ' If objFSO.FolderExists(strNew FontsFolde r) = True Then For Each objFile In objFSO.GetFolder(strWindow sFonts).Fi les If Right(LCase(objFile.Name), 4) = '.ttf' Then If objFSO.FileExists(objFolde r.Self.Pat h & ' ' & objFile.Name) = False Then objFolder.CopyHere objFile.Path End If Next Else MsgBox 'Unable to find ' & strWindowsFonts End If. That's what I get for tinkering with someone else's script without analyzing the whole thing and testing it.
There were a number of items that needed fixing. Thank you for providing the script. I rolled this out using group policy so the script runs during user log in. The script is clever enough to check if the font already exists, and if it does, skips that font and moves onto the next one. One annoyance is when a font is being installed, it displays a dialog box saying installing and a option to select cancel. It only shows for about 2-5 seconds though. As the font source folder I'm using has over 150 fonts, the initial running of the scripts quite a few boxes during the initial log in.
