This is the addon which will overwrite your existing "Arial.ttf, Arialbd.ttf, Arialbi.ttf, Ariali.ttf, Times.ttf, Timesbd.ttf, Timesbi.ttf, Timesi.ttf, trebuc.ttf, trebucbd.ttf, trebucit.ttf, trebucbi.ttf, verdana.ttf, verdanab.ttf, verdanai.ttf, verdanaz.ttf" fonts with newer ones that come from version 1.02 of European Union Expansion Font Update.
This addon works without any registering informations, as windows will normally register them.

RyanVM Update Pack 2.1.9 doesnt have this yet.

MrNxDmX, great job man...

As these are from Microsoft,All of us should check these fonts with our Native languages.
If there is no any Problem with these one i think RyanVm should pulled these fonts in the Next release of Post SP2 Updatepack...

Please Upload this Addon at another server,I have a shared IP network connection...

Thanks...

So, can someone confirm to me that these new fonts are only of use to certain foreign language XP users, and not needed at all for English XPs?

I suppose it has to do with how often your websurfing takes you to foreign sites.

I wouldn't say that it's not needed at all, but it's certainly of minimal use to those who can't read Romanian or Bulgarian.

For those who don't know, or have been living in the dark ages the past couple years, this song is Romanian.

There are only a few (total 6 new characters - 3 capital, 3 small), but the intresting is that i'am bulgarian and i don't know what is the purpose of the new character (only 1 bulgarian, 2 romanian)... There is no such letter in our alphabet...

Maybe they're creating new letters?

I'll save you some reading and cut right to the chase. Microsoft has recently made a version of Windows for a language that technically has no written component (Mapudungun, and yes, I'm aware my spelling doesn't match what's on the site

). It's a tribal language based phonetically on Central American Spanish. Apparently they asked the wrong people to help them put together the alphabet.

Well, Microsoft loves to "innovate".

And because this post speaks about Romanian - Microsoft has create in XP and continues with Vista an Romanian Layout for keyboards. An variation of the German (qwertz) layout. Well I have nothing to say about that, except the official and registered standard in Romania is US (qwerty). You will never find in a shop an keyboard with Microsoft's Romanian Layout.

Also on MSN Live Maps - an Microsoft division - The Geography of Romania has names wich remember more the Bram Stocker "Dracula" than the reality...

Sorry to be offtopic, but that's the American (in)culture...

Yeap you're right... they changed the bulgarian phonetic keyboard layout too... also for many version of Windows Bulgaria was in a wrong timezone (GMT +1, instead of GMT +2... May be the situation will change when we (bulgarians and romanians) are official members of the EU (27 day to go

)

Hmm. Microsoft has release 3 days ago an new update pack, this time includes also Verdana... And it could update also Vista ( with verdana ) not only XP

Checked - and the letters are ok, they are from Romanian alphabet...

I'm a Romanian, and I would be happy to find out that Ryan will include this in the Update Pack

Be happy, keloo05.

Updated to v1.02 version of fonts.

Addon is not tested, should work ok though. Will be glad if someone can confirm it as working.

RyanVM Update Pack 2.1.9 doesnt have this. I'm sure 2.2.0 will do.
