How to select a font with a strange name?
I'm trying to use a font, the name of which is
EPSON kyoukashoM but the problem is that "kyoukasho" is written in japanese and that's not enterable in the editor. How can i specify the name of the font then? Alternatively - how can i choose ANY font, the name of which starts with, let's say, "EPSO"? P.S. Sorry for not crossposting. My mistake... -- Vänligen Konrad --------------------------------------------------- Sleep - thing used by ineffective people as a substitute for coffee Ambition - a poor excuse for not having enough sence to be lazy --------------------------------------------------- |

How to select a font with a strange name?
Konrad,
All the Korean, Chinese and Japanese fonts that I use have a name in English. What name is shown for the font in your Fonts folder ? Or in the Excel font combobox ? A quick Google gives some entries for "EPSON kyokasho". Does that work ? NickHK "Konrad Viltersten" wrote in message ...

How to select a font with a strange name?
Konrad,
How does it appear in a Excel's font list ? Are you using a Japanese system ? What does it show if you use Character map ? The file name or name that appears in the fonts folder is somewhat irrelevant, as the name that you actually use as the font name is contained within the file. NickHK "Konrad Viltersten" wrote in message ... Well, the name is as i mentioned "EPSON kyoukashoM" but the kyoukasho-part is written in kanji. That's what shows in the directory with all the fonts. I can't change that name, it appears... Konrad, All the Korean, Chinese and Japanese fonts that I use have a name in English. What name is shown for the font in your Fonts folder ?

How to select a font with a strange name?
Konrad,
Character map="%SystemRoot%\System32\charmap.exe" I've never found a way to type non-ASCII text in the editor. However, if the font name must be specified in the Japanese characters, you can use ChrW and concatenate the string Range("A1").Font.Name="EPSON " & ChrW(2052) & ChrW(2601)...whatever Maybe that will work. NickHK "Konrad Viltersten" wrote in message ... Well, the name in the Excel's font list does contain kanjis (as in - the real japanese chars, not only the yomi for them). I'm on a swedish system with IME and support for JCK activated. So, the way i understood , my computer can "see" the 16-bit characters but the VBA-editor in Excel can't use it...

This might actually be a good idea. Way out of what one should
have to cope with but workable. I'll try that right away. Thanks! Konrad Konrad, Character map="%SystemRoot%\System32\charmap.exe" I've never found a way to type non-ASCII text in the editor.
