Moving fonts from one computer to another
I have noticed that my new DIM E510 has fewer fonts than my old computer. What is the best procedure to move fonts from my old to my new computer. Can I just overwrite the new computer font list with the one from my old computer (which has more fonts installed)?
Or do I have compare the list of fonts in old and new computer and then install the just ones I need on the new computer one by one?
Seems like there should be some easy way to do this.
Thanks.

No, you can't. To install a new font copy it from the old computer then on the new one open Windows Explorer and go to C:\Windows\Fonts. Once the folder is open go to File|Intall New Font and browse to the copied font to install it.

Thank you very much. I followed your instructions and I have all my fonts installed now.
