278628 - Where do I save Urdu Language font after I download this

Status: RESOLVED WORKSFORME

(Firefox :: General, defect)

Description

[Abbas Dadabhoy]

User-Agent:       Mozilla/4.0 (compatible; MSIE 6.0; Windows NT 5.1; SV1; (R1 1.5); .NET CLR 1.1.4322)
Build Identifier: 1.7.5

The BBC website has Urdu language news at http://www.bbc.co.uk/urdu/, but the 
fonts are not readable.

In the top left corner in an orange box, it allows you to download the fonts, 
which works OK with I.E but not with Mozilla/Firefox. Apparently it is not 
being copied to the correct directory by the install program.

Please let me know where to copy the font to ?

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Goto http://www.bbc.co.uk/urdu/
2. The page is not readable fully.
3.

The URL looks fine for me under WinXP Home w/ FF 1.0 and Moz 1.7.5.  Reporter,
if the exe file you downloaded from the BBC site is putting the actual font in
the wrong directory, move the font (NOT the exe file) into C:\Windows\Fonts. 
Where is the installer placing the extracted font file? And what is the font
file called if you know?

This WORKSFORME. The installer installs asunaskh.ttf (Urdu Naskh Asiatype) in
the Windows font directory, and after restarting the page displays with that font.

Do you have "Always use my fonts" checked in Tools | Options | Fonts & colors?
