If you just want to deploy, whip out the old SMS Installer. There's a script action to do it for you automatically.
Sent from my Surface Pro From: Johns, Damon (DoJ) Sent: Wednesday, June 11, 2014 6:41 PM To: SMS I’ve found that True Type Fonts install fine – it’s the other types that are the issue i.e. OTF extension fonts. I haven’t found a way to install these yet, if anyone has a script they are willing to share that correctly installs these and registers them, that would be fantastic. Doing a simple copy to c:\windows\fonts isn’t sufficient. Obviously if you manually drag them into the fonts folder as an admin on the computer they are installed correctly.

That’s not a big deal during OSD, just a caveat to be aware of.

Juni 2014 14:46 To: '[email protected]' Subject: [mssms] Adding fonts to your base image or deploying using SCCM Does anyone have a good way to ensure that when building a base image and adding fonts will be available for all users? I have some corporate fonts (20) that when I install in the base image as Administrator do not install when a user logs on. I am thinking maybe I should look into copyProfile? The second challenge I have is trying to install it for the other 600 computers that do not have the fonts. I found a few scripts online and I have tried them, but they break when pushing in SCCM (user deploy) Any ideas? Thanks, Kevin -- This e-mail message and any attachments are of a confidential nature.
