I have tested it with the following script and it works fine:
Const FONTS = &H14&
Set objShell = CreateObject("Wscript.Shell")
Set objFSO = CreateObject("Scripting.FileSystemObject")
strScriptDir = objFSO.GetParentFolderName(WScript.ScriptFullName)
Set objApp = CreateObject("Shell.Application")
Set objFolder = objApp.Namespace(FONTS)
If Not objFSO.FileExists("C:\WINDOWS\Fonts\MyriadPro-Black.otf") Then
objFolder.CopyHere strScriptDir & "\MyriadPro-Black.otf"
I made this as a package vbs. For my detection I had to put in each registry
string for detection. At first it would install everything but then fail, and I
figured it was the detection (I originally had it setup with just the beginning
of the font name - MyriadPro, then I decided to connect to my machine and put
the full string and it finally worked.

Put a small little pop up box letting them know what it was, and then a box
telling them when it was done.
It is not pretty but it works :)
Thanks to Jason, Reto and Jason W for the links.

Thanks Rod, I will look into that :)
I just checked this link out from Jason and that vb script looks like it will
handle OTF fonts also

There were so many emails this morning I missed it, I will have to do some
testing this morning. Thanks again.

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
