I'm using Pov version 3.5 on windows 2000. I would like to use the
symbol.ttf that I have in my default (and library path) C:winnt\fonts path.
I'm only using this in the editor window so I'm not concerned with
rendering.

I have over 150 fonts (excluding the obvious style variations) in my fonts
area but when I bring up the font selector window in the editor preference
option I can only see about 20 of them. I've have both true type and open
type and I can see that POV ray recognizes both.

I've check all font questions in the news group and search the documentation
without any luck?

any help?

David

It does indeed, but being a sane source code editor, CodeMax (the
internal POV-Ray editor control) will most likely only present you
with a choice of monospaced fonts.

Well, bang goes my plan to write all scenes using wing-ding....
