Eric7100 Posted November 17, 2015 Author Share Posted November 17, 2015 that little line will be a running man and the writing around it will be in the intellivision font if you download the intellivision fonts and install them. The text is the sf intellivised font. The running man is the intellivisioning font. Other font used is the intellect font intellivision fonts.zip What is sf?

pimpmaul69 Posted November 17, 2015 Share Posted November 17, 2015 (edited) How do you install them? unzip the file then double click your left mouse button on each font. Then it will ask you if you want to install that font. Do that for each font Edited November 17, 2015 by pimpmaul69 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pimpmaul69 Posted November 17, 2015 Share Posted November 17, 2015 What is sf? the font is called "sf intellivised" no clue what sf means Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I unzip the file, and when I double-click on each font individually, a message box pops up where I can either OPEN or CANCEL. Clicking on OPEN causes another window to pop up, which simply allows me to view a million examples of the font.

If on windows click on your start button (or round button with windows flag) in the bottom left corner. then open up "computer" or "my computer". then open your c: drive. then open your windows folder. Then open your fonts folder. Now drag the fonts into the fonts folder Edited November 17, 2015 by pimpmaul69 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Eric7100 Posted November 17, 2015 Author Share Posted November 17, 2015 Doesn't work. When I try to drag the fonts to the Fonts folder, either individually or collectively, I keep getting an error message like this one: The file '€BAA@@À@;;@À=@@A@@€€þÀÁ€þ…;€€€€ýD;@@@@@@@@A@@@@AÀ@@ú^>€@?@' is not a valid font file and cannot be installed. The weird string of characters changes each time, but it is always a weird string of characters. Just forget it, man. Thanks for trying.

Can double click on them and can install them so i know the zip file is good. Plus others have downloaded this and installed them fine.

Same here, except for the "can install them" part. Every time I drag one file (or all of them together), I get an error message like the one I showed you above. The 8 font file names appear fine, even though the error messages seem to indicate that they are named with a weird string of characters.

+fdr4prez Posted November 17, 2015 Share Posted November 17, 2015 Hmmm, you ain't using one of them retro Windows versions, like WinXP, where you need to reboot for things to start working right, are you? if you want to see if the font if loaded and working, you can see if the font is selectable in the Word, or somewhere else.
