I use to use two fonts (English, Arabic) in my Win2k pro machine.

Now I face problem in the Arabic fonts so I need to remove all the fonts and reload it again so is that possible with out formatting the machine? or is there any way to repair?

Thankx in advance....

All fonts reside in C:\WINNT\FONTS.

If you have admin rights, you can have the logon script copy your Arabic.TTF file into %SYSTEMROOT\FONTS

Example: COPY ARABIC.TTF %SYSTEMROOT\FONTS

Or, you can send an email to everyone asking them to copy that font into that folder.

The only drawback is that the font won't be properly loaded until the next time the computer reboots. (I think).

Oops.. the correct term is %SYSTEMROOT% . Forgot to put the second %.
