SYMPTOMS

You may receive following message when you try to run Font Assistant: 

   TrueType is not enabled

   Font Assistant is a TrueType Font grouping utility.
   You must enable TrueType fonts before using Font
   Assistant.

   To enable TrueType and restart Windows, choose

   and continue, choose the Close button.

CAUSE

This message indicates that TrueType fonts are not enabled or the sLangauge= line is missing from the [intl] section of the WIN.INI file.

RESOLUTION

The Font Assistant is a font manager that ships with TrueType Font Pack 2. If you receive the above error message, choose the Close button and then use the following steps to correct the problem:

  1. From Control Panel, choose the Fonts icon, then choose the TrueType button. If TrueType fonts are not enabled, enable them and then restart Windows.

  2. If TrueType fonts are enabled and you still receive the error message, choose the International icon from Control Panel. Without making any changes, choose the OK button in the International dialog box, then restart Windows. This corrects the sLanguage= line in the [intl] section of the WIN.INI file.
