    Default Vegas MS11 Text question

    I recently reloaded my vegas ms11 to a new desktop and I got a prompt to do and update which I did.

    The problem is that the update does not contain Lucinda Calligraphy text which is what I you as text in my videos. It existed prior to the update.

    How can I get Lucinda Calligraphy back?

    Isn't a type face part of the OS not Vegas. There are loads of web sites where you can down load type faces.

    Have you got MS Office loaded on your lap top but not your Desktop ? I'm sure the type face comes from the OS not Vegas.

    Hmmmmm

    Fonts supplied with Windows 7 (it's not there)
    Windows XP fonts (not there either)

    Fonts that are installed with Microsoft Office 2010 Products (includes Lucida Calligraphy Italic)

    I have MS Office 2010 and the font is listed on my system simply as Lucida Calligraphy.

    Good call Midnight!

    Doesn't matter - the font is not supplied with Windows. It's supplied with Office.

    Ok, guess I'll have to pick a 2nd font I like to do the editing done on the new desktop. Thanks.

    Not that I'm advocating it or anything, you could always copy the font from your laptop.
