Upgrading Font Assistant Version 1.0 to Version 1.1

 Last reviewed: September 16, 1996
Article ID: Q120217
The information in this article applies to:
  • Microsoft Font Assistant version 1.0, 1.1
  • Microsoft Office Assistant for Windows, version 1.0

SYMPTOMS

In most cases, Font Assistant version 1.1 automatically converts and uses the font groups that you created in Font Assistant version 1.0. However, in some cases the conversion fails.

WORKAROUND

To convert the font groups you created in Font Assistant version 1.0 so that you can use them in version 1.1, use File Manager to delete the FAST.BIN file from your WINDOWS directory. The next time you run Font Assistant version 1.1, it will be able to convert and use your old font groups.
