MS Office Forum / General PowerPoint Questions / March 2008PowerPoint couldn't detect my new Chinese fonts
Hi all, I installed some Chinese fonts in my PC running on winxp. MS Word and Excel are able to detect my new fonts but why is it that PowerPoint doesn't? My MS Office version is 2002. I would like to use Chinese fonts in PowerPoint. Pls help me out.  SignatureMany thanks for your valued advice! > Hi all, > [quoted text clipped - 4 lines] > > I would like to use Chinese fonts in PowerPoint. Pls help me out. What exactly do you mean by "detect"? Do you need to display/print existing presentations that use Chinese or do you need to enter new Chinese text? ----------------------------------------- Steve Rindsberg, PPT MVP PPT FAQ: www.pptfaq.com PPTools: www.pptools.com ================================================ After installing some Chinese fonts, I would like to enter Chinese text in PowerPoint, but my Chinese fonts do not appear in the list of fonts available. SignatureMany thanks for your valued advice! > > Hi all, > > [quoted text clipped - 14 lines] > PPTools: www.pptools.com > ================================================ Hi Tommi, You never tell us how you installed your Chinese fonts. Simply put, having a font on your hard drive isn't enough - you must also install the font to make it available to your system. GoTo C:/ click Windows folder > Fonts > File > Install New Fonts. Click the small down arrow on Drive windows to locate your fonts (example given is from a CD-Fonts). Double click the Folders windows at right to open each fonts folder. Locate on top windows List of fonts available. Select the require font on upper windows. Make sure the check mark is there [ |/ ] Copy fonts to Fonts folder. Click OK. Open your PPT and check the new font if installed correctly now. Hopes this help. Rino P.S.// If single click wouln't work then uses doubled click -- my system using single clicks. > After installing some Chinese fonts, I would like to enter Chinese text in > PowerPoint, but my Chinese fonts do not appear in the list of fonts available.

OK, thanks. By the way, what RINO says is true, but it sounds like you've already followed his suggestions, since you say you can see the Chinese fonts in Excel and Word. On my system, all of the double-byte (ie, Chinese, Japanese, Korean, etc) fonts show up at the TOP of the font list. But in any case, to enter text in one of these languages, you'll need to enable support for the language in Windows: There's more information on this here: Using Japanese, Chinese, Korean (CJK) languages in PowerPoint http://www.pptfaq.com/FAQ00910.htm ----------------------------------------- Steve Rindsberg, PPT MVP PPT FAQ: www.pptfaq.com PPTools: www.pptools.com ================================================ I've already enabled support for the Chinese language in Windows. Surprisingly, my PowerPoint shows 2 fonts as '?????' and '??????' whereas all my Chinese fonts are displayed in Chinese characters in Word and Excel. Why is that? I'm confused.

I'm confused. I'm afraid I don't know ... after following the steps on that page, I'm able to use Japanese text in PPT 2003. I don't know whether there are any substantial differences between it and 2002 that'd make a difference ... I didn't think so. ----------------------------------------- Steve Rindsberg, PPT MVP PPT FAQ: www.pptfaq.com PPTools: www.pptools.com ================================================
