Problem

Is it possible to use True Type fonts from different directory than C:/Windows/Fonts/ ?

Solution

Yes, the MS_FONTPATH configuration variable can be set to point to alternative directories which contain true type fonts.

MS_TTFPATH can also be used on older versions of MicroStation.

These variables will specify the paths to the directories which contain True Type fonts.
