PTW Fonts and Installation

PTW utilizes several true type fonts to display and print generated reports. If these fonts are not available/installed, then PTW reports may display and print strange characters.

Typically, installation of fonts used by PTW is needed only when you do not have the software installed on the local machine. In other words, PTW fonts only needs to be installed when running the software from a remote computer such as a server.
