Re: AVTS3-10-20 different fonts in races



"and reselect font" to what?? Is this a trial and error sort of operation until you find matches?  Sounds like this should be added to list of GEMS installation files for AVTS.  Which is what you were saying I guess.

This has been fixed and will be in the next GEMS-1-14 release.
 
NOTE:  The problem is that the font specified in GEMS is not on the AVTS system (in Tari's case it is the "Arial Narrow" font).  When a font is not found Windows attempts to use a different font in the same family.  Unfortunately GEMS was not setting the font family correctly. 
 
There are two solutions to this problem.
 
    1) Install the missing fonts on the Accu-Touch (This should be the standard procedure).
    2) Unset the "Cards printed" flag (you do not need to unset the 'Cards Layed out' flag), highlight the offending text and reselect the font.

races have different fonts- 2 candidates are different and 1 has occupational designation in italic -  yes and no appear in TNR  and the font size varies in the text from prop to prop    - the Race headers are in some font I don't recognize - not what is on the Gems ballot
