TheUsualAlex Posted July 22, 2006 Share Posted July 22, 2006 Hello, Does anyone here per chance know how or direct me to install TrueType Font for WXP's command prompt...? Much thanks! Alex Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LEO-oo- Posted July 24, 2006 Share Posted July 24, 2006 XP wont work with other TTFs Only special fonts will work - please try this MS-page for more informations. I read about the font 'Andale Mono' as a replacement for the 'Lucida Console'. You have to change only the entry 0 in the registry: HKLM\Software\Microsoft\WindowsNT\CurrentVersion\Console\TrueTypeFont and you can use this font instead of 'Lucida Console'. Maybe there are more (fixed-pitch) fonts like this. Hope this helps... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And considering that Lucida Console can't display Asian characters... : / I'll try modifying the registry and see what happens. Thanks Leo!
