Question I want Times New Roman font!

There are only 4 fonts available in Word on my Axim X5 - all my word files on my laptop are in Times new roman font. Where can I get TImes new roman font for word on the axim X5?

I believe you can copy the font from the desktop to the PPC? Does anyone know for sure?

You should be able to do that no problem. As long as it is a TrueType font.

I've added fonts to my Axim this way.

Just be careful if you add Arial to your Axim. When I have this font on my Axim, Pocket Money's formatting gets all messed up; deleting it again, and the formatting is ok again?

thanks guys!

I actually just copied the Times New roman fonts from my Desktop control panel fonts folder to the appropriate folder in my PPC - worked awesome!:D

I noticed the Times New Roman file from my computer is 339 KB comapred to the 29 KB of other font files already on the PPC. Is there a smaller file that would still enable me to have Times New Roman? Or is there a way to tell the Axim to use the built in Tahoma, as opposed to Pixel, when a file is written in Times New ROman? Also, why in the world did Microsoft leave one of the most used fonts off of the PPC and put Tahoma on there???

Well, they left out most of the fuctionality too. Pocket Word and Excel are shadows of the desktop apps.
