When calling to the Font in the XML tag, make sure you use the name as it appears in the font drop box on the computer and not just the name of the file.

For example... if the filename is chowfun.ttf but when you go into say.. MS Word the font name in the drop box is "Chowfun Fun Font" you would have to say

<font face="Chowfun Fun Font" />

Also, for some reason, some people swear that they have to install fonts into the \Windows directory instead of \Windows\Fonts directory, so you should try that also if what I first mentioned, does not work.

You are a genius, winmobilelawyer! The font is recognized as Chow Fun, not Chowfun, or Chowfun_, as I was trying. I had already put the font in both directories, just in case, but renaming it in the xlm made it work! Thanks!
