I noticed when I install my frontend on another pc that the fonts were not
the same, is this because that pc doesnt have the fonts?
If so is there a way to install the fonts with my program?

You'll probably get a better answer if you ask in a newsgroup related to
whatever operating system you're using, since that's not really anything to
do with Access.

Actually, it does...indirectly.  He needs to package the fonts with his
app...if he has distribution rights for those fonts.  But most likely, he
doesn't have distribution rights and should use the standard fonts in
Windows.

How do I get distribution rights?

You'd have to look at the license for the font(s).  But as I said, you'd be
best off to use the standard fonts that are provided with Windows anyway.
Why is the font so important?

Yeah, I realized he wanted the fonts to go with his application. My point
was that how to install fonts wasn't part of Access. Your advice (to use
standard fonts) was a better answer than mine though...
