How to use new fonts?

Hi,

The default fonts T3D used are .uft files, what is uft? How to use new ttf fonts?

Thanks.

.uft fonts are generated from T3D using the existing fonts on your system. T3D will created a *.utf if you have a Gui profile using that font.

So in short, install the ttf on your system and create a Gui profile using the new ttf font you've just installed. T3D will create the .utf for you.

Anyone know how to set a font bold? It seems not as simple as just adding a 'bold' after the font name, if so, it will turn to use the system default font with bold, not the font I want with bold.

Thanks.

Bold, italic, and so on are not font properties: they are other fonts at all! Looking at your windows font directory you should see the font list available, including bold, italic, etc.
