The TWGS font is unreadable,in the edit window, And in command
window. I have un-installed TWGS and reinstall, and this did not
fix the prob. I ran several REG fixing progs and no luck.
I even ran a font corrupt prog to fix the system OEM fonts
and this did not work. It looks like a system font size prob
or font has changed or is corrupted. does anyone have a prop
fix for this???[?]

Did you try reinstalling the font altogether through windows, and also maybe resizing the font though the editors main window? That usually fixes the prob.

yes tryed to re-install some of the fonts, i have 700 fonts, not sure
witch one it was, but prog checkers said fonts were fine and no
corruptions? im sure its a size thing in the registry, but where
its local is a mystery? and what to set it to?, talked to a few
peeps, and thay said its a reload, thats not an option.

That old link is broken now (from posts past), darn it! IIRC it was the terminal fonts that used by it, all are basically DOS related fonts. those need to be reinstall over your current ones. Maybe use your Windows Op CD to do it via the Control Panel fonts icon or a Windows repair CD? You could also try changing the font setting in you TWGS window via the submenu's located in the header on the left-hand side.

I think the only way to do it correctly it to go through the Windows Font Installer, that way it updates the windows Reg and such. Hell, perhaps even trying a warmboot along with it?

Like Always I had to fix with little or no help!
I found a compatable .FON file from a known working good system
and traced the problem down. and to my suprise the newer .FON
font file looks better and is easyer to read than the Original
text font TWGS was useing! To all that have this prob its not a
TWGS problem, its a Operating System problem, ie- MS-XP.
but it does affect TWGS. But very HAPPY to say TWGS looks much
Better than befor!!! [:D]
