Fonts must be installed not only copied, use the "Install Fonts" command.

You should contact the Plugin Software vendor directly for any information.

BTW, I have used the same Plug-in many times and Always it worked fine.

Dear Mrovvancase,

in reality I have already replied to your question.

"Fonts must be installed not only copied."

The FONT folder in installware doesn't anything of special, obviously ... this is just a system folder as any other system folder available with the target.

Hope this helps you.
