You can't do it from the /windows/font folder. So you must copy it out
of there first. The only thing to do that seems to be via command-line
mode.
So you must open a ms-dos-window, locate the font (read: it's Dos-name)
in the fonts folder and copy it somewhere else, then you can add it to a
mail.

Hope this helps

I have the same problem with Greek characters. When I use a TT font
(unicode) and I use greek characters, although the text box in the side bar
shows the text in greek the text object shows other (non-greek) characters.
Since I want a text object with greek characters is there any solution?

Basically, it's a problem with POV 3.1g.  (at least as far as i 
understand the matter)

Try using megapov as your renderer instead and it may fix things.  If 
not, then I don't really have any ideas, as I try to avoid using text 
objects if at all possible due to their dog slow rendering speed. 

I think the problem with fonts is due to be fixed in the upcoming POV 
3.5, but until that is released, your best bet is probably to try using 
MegaPOV.  if you've not got a copy yet, it can be found at 
http://nathan.kopp.com

Bye for now,
     Jamie.

Yes, it is.

Yes, it does. MegaPOV has no problems with the font.
