Calibri Font in Access Runtime
Mike Turco 12/6/2008 10:41:00 PM
I'm wondering whether the Calibri font is included in the A2007 runtime
distribution. I've been searching high and low and can't find an answer to
this question. (I understand this font is included w. the pp viewer.) Thanks

When in doubt add it to your package for deployment. This can be done in
the developer when you build the package. Please don't take this wrong but
you should always try and use fonts that ship with windows unless you really
need something specific like bar codes. Otherwise you may have problems.

Hi Pete,

Thanks! That's a good suggestion. I'm not sure, though, that I can do that.
I think Calibri requires licensing.

I've been trying other fonts. Verdana is nice but sometimes the letters
crowed together. Tahoma, ehhh... Calibri looks really nice on flat screen
montiors and the XP fonts don't always come out right and aren't consistent.
