There is another odd behavior that I believe must be related: when I double click on sserife.fon, the Windows font viewer program opens it and displays the font as Arial (OpenType) ! It does this even if I uninstall & remove the font, and open a copy of the sserife.fon from another folder on the same system. I also manually un-installed and re-installed sserife.fon via Control Panel->Fonts to be sure. I removed all the foreign versions of sserife.fon file (language pack versions like sserifer.fon, sserifeg.fon etc. English is the default language and the other installed languages are not active in the language bar.
It is definately the correct version of sserife.fon file installed in the Windows\Fonts folder. However the MS Sans Serif is installed and mapped correctly in the registry as far as I can tell. I then added all foreign languages to the run time image, built and deployed it. That fixed it, it worked correctly until. I researched and found I needed the MS Sans Serif font (sserife.fon) to fix it. Many fonts are bold and the UIs are too big. Using WES 2009, when I build and deploy my runtime image, at run time our MFC applications do no look correct. This post brought to you by "Ｍ" ( U+ff2d, a.k.a.MS Sans Serif fonts are "corrupted" and are somehow mapped to Arial font in my Windows Embedded run time.
(I will talk more about Microsoft Sans Serif another day.) Which does not change the validity of the other things that Serge said, including the fact that Microsoft Sans Serif is a much nicer font! In fact this whol post is using Microsoft Sans Serif, if you have it installed! And it won't always be Western European, though it will work to match your default system locale. So what you see as one entry can actually be one of a dozen or more font files. When you change your default system locale, one of the dances that happens is that the fonts registered with Windows will be changed to match your choice and your font size and resolution, so that you will be able to see text in the console (more on dealing with this issue another day!).
#Microsoft sans serif bitmap font code#
The fact is that what you as MS Sans Serif is actually one of many different files covering different sizes and code pages. looks like there are a few more there than the font folder is admitting to, isn't there? :-) Now, let's go the DOS prompt and look to see what is there: Note the total number of fonts I have there - 283, including a visible Marlett. You will see mostly TrueType fonts, and then you will see some or most of the following bitmap fonts: Now if you look in the fonts folder (click to see it bigger):
I figured it might be good to set the record straight. The problem is that this font supports the Western European code page only.When one adds an Eastern European language such as Polish, appTranslator realizes that the font will not display correctly in Polish hence replaces the default dialog font by Tahoma.Now Tahoma is a _little_ bit wider than MS Sans Serif, resulting in long source text items being cropped, especially if the controls were really just wide enough to display the text. In the post he talked about this font a bit, saying: Loyal SIAO reader Serge Wautier just posted about MS Sans Serif.
