When using non-standard windows fonts on a colour Touchscreen.

The Next update to PICED Help file will read as:

If you use a non-standard font (i.e. One which does not come with Windows),
it would be advisable to save a copy of the font with the project. Copy the
fonts to the directory requested by the archive wizard. The font files, which
have either a "ttf" or "fon" extension reside in the Windows\Fonts directory
(or the Winnt40\Fonts on some versions of Windows). Normally, these fonts
would be those which have been downloaded specially for use in the project.

Colour C-Touch comes pre-loaded with the following fonts :

· Arial
· Courier New
· Marlett
· Microsoft Sans Serif
· Tahoma
· Times New Roman
· Verdana
· Webdings
· Wingdings

For example, if you use a non-standard font called "My Font" in your project
and your project is stored in C:\Clipsal\PICED\Projects\MyProject, you will
need to copy the font file (for example C:\Windows\Fonts\MyFont.ttf) to the
project fonts folder C:\Clipsal\PICED\Projects\MyProject\Fonts before you do
the archive.
