<div style="border: 1px solid #808040; background-color:#f8f880; color:#000; padding:0.3em;"><b>Warning: </b>The FontName plug-in does not support Unicode, consider using the [[FontInfo plug-in]] instead.</div>
== Note ==
This script is now included in the [[FontName_plug-in|FontName plugin]] by default.  The newest version of the script also includes code from other scripts as noted in the actual script.
A few notes about using InstallFON macro:  You should copy the 'FontName' out of the registry of the Source machine as the fonts might not work if the wrong name or type is specified.
The location of the fonts folder can be attained in a number of different ways, reading a registry key from the target machine or the way shown below, obtained from an example by [[User:Joel|Joel]]. Note that this way uses the [[System plug-in]] and if the size of your installer is a *very* big issue reading the registry might save a few bytes in the final installer size.
Some recent bugs:
Do not put a trailing backslash onto the $FONT_DIR.  This will make the font install, but be 0 Kilobytes.
Some all uppercase font filenames generate errors.  By changing the font to all lowercase, the font was automatically found.
'''UNINSTALL''' - Font removal function do not seem to work at the momment -> I am trying to find a fix for this and will post this as soon as i find one.

== Description ==
This page uses the functionality of the '''[[FontName]] plugin.'''  This will allow you to register TTF fonts without the need to supply the font's registry name. The second macro is designed to register FON fonts and still requires the input of the font's name. If you do not wish to use the FontName plugin you should use the FON font macro to install TTF fonts.

These macros have been designed to work with NSIS 2.0b4 (CVS), although it could possibly be modified to work with earlier versions of NSIS.

These macros allow the user to uninstall fonts in the uninstaller as does the [http://nsis.sourceforge.net/archive/viewpage.php?pageid=392 standard version] the main difference being that if you define FontBackup to a 'registry store' of the fonts the installer created it will only remove fonts that were not present before the program was installed.

''Please note that uninstalling fonts is generally not a good idea since other programs might depend on them. Exceptions would be custom created fonts which would only be used by your program or when installing a *huge* amount of fonts.''

After including that file in your script you should make sure that the '$FONT_DIR' variable is set to the right fonts directory of the target machine and make sure that you define the FontBackup variable to point to the location were you would like to store the names of the fonts that were not present on the users machine when the installer was executed and thus should be safe to remove when uninstalling provided that no newer program are using this font. Also of note is the last command in the fonts Section, it enables Windows and other programs to refresh their fonts lists without the need to restart the computer. Fonts will most likely not be completely removed until the PC is restarted as fonts are only removed if no programs are using the fonts list.

Please note that FontFile parameter should be '''just''' the font filename, without a preceding path.  If the fonts are not stored in the same location as the script you should use the '!cd' command to change the compiler path to the location of the fonts before calling the font macros.


Calling the RemoveTTF and RemoveFON macros is identical to their installation variants.

A few notes about using InstallFON macro:  You should copy the 'FontName' out of the registry of the Source machine as the fonts might not work if the wrong name or type is specified.
The location of the fonts folder can be attained in a number of different ways, reading a registry key from the target machine or the way shown above, obtained from an example by Lobo Lunar.  Note that this way uses the system plugin and if the size of your installer is a *very* big issue reading the registry might save a few bytes in the final installer size.

Warning: The FontName plug-in does not support Unicode, consider using the FontInfo plug-in instead.


Note

This script is now included in the FontName plugin by default. The newest version of the script also includes code from other scripts as noted in the actual script.

A few notes about using InstallFON macro: You should copy the 'FontName' out of the registry of the Source machine as the fonts might not work if the wrong name or type is specified. The location of the fonts folder can be attained in a number of different ways, reading a registry key from the target machine or the way shown below, obtained from an example by Joel. Note that this way uses the System plug-in and if the size of your installer is a *very* big issue reading the registry might save a few bytes in the final installer size.

Some recent bugs: Do not put a trailing backslash onto the $FONT_DIR. This will make the font install, but be 0 Kilobytes. Some all uppercase font filenames generate errors. By changing the font to all lowercase, the font was automatically found. UNINSTALL - Font removal function do not seem to work at the momment -> I am trying to find a fix for this and will post this as soon as i find one.

Description

This page uses the functionality of the FontName plug-in. This will allow you to register TTF fonts without the need to supply the font's registry name. The second macro is designed to register FON fonts and still requires the input of the font's name. If you do not wish to use the FontName plugin you should use the FON font macro to install TTF fonts.

These macros have been designed to work with NSIS 2.0b4 (CVS), although it could possibly be modified to work with earlier versions of NSIS.

These macros allow the user to uninstall fonts in the uninstaller as does the standard version the main difference being that if you define FontBackup to a 'registry store' of the fonts the installer created it will only remove fonts that were not present before the program was installed.

Please note that uninstalling fonts is generally not a good idea since other programs might depend on them. Exceptions would be custom created fonts which would only be used by your program or when installing an *huge* amount of fonts.

Save this script as a NSIS Include file in the Include directory of NSIS so that then you can easily get font registration functionality in any script by simply including this file. (Suggested file name: FontRegAdv.nsh)

After including that file in your script you should make sure that the '$FONT_DIR' variable is set to the right fonts directory of the target machine and make sure that you define the FontBackup variable to point to the location were you would like to store the names of the fonts that were not present on the users machine when the installer was executed and thus should be safe to remove when uninstalling provided that no newer program are using this font. Also of note is the last command in the fonts Section, it enables Windows and other programs to refresh their fonts lists without the need to restart the computer. Fonts will most likely not be completely removed until the PC is restarted as fonts are only removed if no programs are using the fonts list.

Calling the RemoveTTF and RemoveFON macros is identical to their installation variants. You should note that you must also include the FontName.nsh file available with the FontName plugin.

!include FontRegAdv.nsh
!include FontName.nsh
 
!define FontBackup Reg\key\To\Backup\Fonts\entries\To
