adhoc3 Posted March 4, 2006 Report Share Posted March 4, 2006 One of my friend encountered a strange software problem: He can only see 1234... in bidding box, but cant see any ♣♦♥♠ or NT on his screen. The cards can be shown. I suggested he re-install, but not work. I've sent him my own downloaded setup file, installed, but not work either. What's wrong and what to do? I guess he will survive without BBO ........ half-life. :ph34r: Please take it as an emergency call. A lots thanks for rapid reply, on behalf on my poor friend.

adhoc3 Posted March 6, 2006 Author Report Share Posted March 6, 2006 I got reply today from Florin, thanks. I post the reply for anyone who may need. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Hi. Your PC is missing a standard font - the SYMBOL font (symbole.fon). This font is a part of Windows, but somehow your copy got corrupted or lost. Anyway, I have attached a copy. Here are the steps to install it 1) Save the attached font file somewhere on your PC 2) Click Start/Settings/Control Panel/Fonts 3) Click File/Install New Font A window will pop up. By manipulating the folder list in the lower left, you can navigate to the folder containing the file you saved in step (1). Once you do so, the "List of fonts" will contain a new entry, something like "Symbol 8,10,12, blah blah". Click on this line in the "List of fonts" window, and click OK Repeat the procedure for symbol.ttf if not successful in the first attempt. Kind regards, Florin Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
