Font 'Times New Roman' does not support style 'Regular'


Anybody hear of this one? System.ArgumentException: Font 'Times New Roman' does not support style 'Regular'.

I've got a WinForms app that is deployed via ClickOnce. For some reason a number of users are getting this error. I can see getting this error because of picking a non-standard font, but Times New Roman, Regular? Is there a service pack or something that people need?

I would love to hear from anybody that has figured out a solution to this problem.


Solution

  • One solution that seems to work is moving the font file to another directory, then reinstalling it (as explained further in http://www.binaryfortress.com/Forum/index.php?topic=691.0)
