The Iconbar advice works here using RPCemu, RO 4.39, Windows XP SP2, and Cyberbit font (only). If the modules have initialised you should see: *help fontmanager ==> Help on keyword FontManager Module is: Font Manager 3.66 (02 Jan 2010) *help romfonts ==> Help on keyword ROMFonts Module is: ROM Fonts 0.75 (19 Jan 2010) > I then took Cyberbit out of Resources.Fonts, and ran NetSurf again. > This time it ran fully, and I was able to view pages in Amharic with > the Abyssinica font. > > Any idea why this NetSurf doesn't like Cyberbit? Is it a memory > problem? (Cyberbit weighs in at, IIRC, 21M). 24,375,092 bits (23.8MB). Perhaps your copy has not converted correctly. RPCemu has only 128MB memory, so that's not likely to be the problem. Tony
