      When I'm going to place a 3d text in a model, SU gives me a serie of fonts for it.
      Does anyone know how can I change this fonts? to include more options?

      Thanks in advance!

          That was a quick one!

          Do you meant to install more in my standard windows folder?

          I have loads of it.. But I think the SU is not reading it.. is it possible?

            Maybe. Windows makes use of many different font types, not sure what SU support. But as long as they are TrueType or OpenType I think it should work.

              And yes, your Windows Font folder.

                ok.. thanks mate.

                Is probably something wrong with SU then.. because I use all the font in other softwares with no problems...

                I'll try to reinstall maybe...

                  SU doesn't support all font types. AFAIK it does True Type but I'm not sure. There are very very few fonts that support Hungarian characters anyway so I gave up playing with them a long time ago (I just think I remember reading this about True Type somewhere).

                    TrueType and OpenTypes appears. I have many myself.

                    What kind of fonts is it that you have but don't appear in SketchUp? Could it be that it's raster based font you are trying to use?

                      I don't know why... what I've done is before trying to reinstall the SU, reinstall the fonts.

                      I just took them all off the folder, then installed them back again. (took a few minutes, but ok)
                      Windows restarted, Done! Is working fine now...

                      Thanks guys!
