The following procedure shows you how to add an existing third–party font plug–in to your image.

Procedure

To add a pluggable font driver to an image

  1. Add the third-party font driver DLL to \Windows\System.

    For more information, see Adding a Device Driver to an OS Design.

  2. Optional. To replace the default Microsoft TrueType driver with a third–party driver, you must set the following Sysgen variable:

    set SYSGEN_3RDPARTY_TTDRIVER=1

    This Sysgen variable prevents the standard Microsoft TrueType components from building in the image.

    For more information about how to set a Sysgen variable, see Setting or Clearing a Sysgen Variable.

  3. Add the font driver in the FontDrivers registry key, according to the instructions in Pluggable Fonts Registry Settings. This makes sure that the font driver loads in the correct order.
