 Topic: Is it possible to use other fonts ?
Posted: 17 February 2005 at 6:40pm |
Hello,
I will need to "insert code" from a language which uses special characters (namely APL) in my posts.
Is this possible with RTE?
Thanks.

With version 3, you there is a sepporate file called
browser_encoding_inc.asp that allows you to set the page encoding
acorss the whole RTE so that you can use different characters sets.

Hello,
THanks you for your answer.
Coming back on my original question, but formulating it a bit differently, is it possible to add a font to the RTE Font Combo Box? with version 2? with version 3?
Thanks.
Eric

You can add a font, but unless it's on your viewers machines, they won't see anything except perhaps a default font which may/may not contain the special characters you need to represent APL.
I have over a thousand fonts on my machine, but can only use 5 or 6 for web text as I'm pretty sure 99% of my viewers will have them. Even then I need to specify a default font - like generic san-serif.
The other fonts are just for greating web graphics.

Lead me not into temptation... I know the short cut, follow me.

Thank you.
Fine. I know about what you said, but people are not forced to use this additional APL font: only those of my customers who have it will use it if necessary. All the other people will be happy with Arial, Times New Roman, etc.
So please, could you tell me how to add a font in the RTE Font Combo Box?
Eric

Edit the file 'RTE_iframe_select_font.asp'
It's pretty much straight HTML in a table, so just change one of the options in the list to the font you want to use.

Thank you for the info.
I think I would have found this file by myself... if I had it in my installation of your Forum, but I don't.
Here are the files I have which names start with RTE:
Please advise.
Note: I think I run WWF v7.9 since I downloaded and installed it recently and I have RTE v1.2c
Thanks.

OK I see now.
So this isn't anything to do with the Web Wiz RTE, this is a modification you want to make to the editor in web wiz forums.
Have a look in the web wiz forums mods and add-ons forum for any mods to do what you require.
