Fonts question.

[Visys]

Hey guy's, I have the "Fonts" folder in my main WoW directory.
And I'm trying to use the "Visitor" font.
But for some reason, for example.. if I'm trying to change the font on my Stuf Unit Frames, "Visitor" does not show up.

How can I make it so that "Visitor" will be a usable font for me?

You could use SharedMedia and add Visitor to it's font folder. Stuf will be able to choose from SharedMedia's fonts, textures, etc.

Option one
Rename the visitor.ttf file to one of the following (with it inside the 'Fonts' folder):
- ARIALN.ttf: This will replace all small text, such as info text, chat box text, etc.
- FRIZQT__.ttf: This will replace all 'name' text, such as player names, spell names, etc. Is also used for most interface elements like the default player frames, etc.
- Morpheus.ttf: This will replace all of the header text used in quest descriptions and mail.
- skurri.ttf: This will supposedly only replace the font used for critical hits in the default combat text, but I am suspicious that this font is no longer used.
All addons can access these four fonts at any time. I always pick to replace skurri for my 'other' font (such as a pixel font used for unit frames), because it's not used in anything else in the game.

Option two
Download SharedMedia, read the instructions provided. Any addon that uses SharedMedia will then be able to access those fonts.

If you are manually replacing the game fonts with a Fonts folder, then you will need to choose one of the game fonts (which is now your custom font) in your addon's options.
