Hello folks,

I did several small essays during the weekend and I managed to download the m$ truetype fonts. The problem comes from the wget command included in 'owb/datas' version 1.8.2 of 2009. it is very or even too old. Trying with version 1.19.3 of July 2015, available at http://morphos-files.net/download/wget, I almost succeed, an argument is asked '--no-check-certificate'. I then modify the script for downloading and installing the fonts and it works.

<Script>
; OWB font downloader

.KEY foo
.BRA {
. KET}

failat 21

Echo "Welcome to OWB font downloader!"

If not exists c: xadUnFile
Requestchoice> nil: "OWB font downloader" "You need to have a functional XADMaster in your system" "Ok"
quit 5
endif

If not val "$ OWBch {$$}" eq "1"
Unsetenv OWBch {$$}
quit
endif
Unsetenv OWBch {$$}

There I put c: wget to use the latest version instead of the old one. However, why does this argument have to be added to the wget command ? Me, I do not know.

Could anyone change the tags to indicate that this is an amigados script ?

Isn't that version 1.16.3?

> why does this argument have to be added to the wget command ?

That's because MorphOS doesn't have a system-specified location for CA certificates so wget wouldn't know where to find them for verification, even if installed.

Use the 'code' tags.

new script modified by Brumiga is avaliable HERE:

New wget version is available too, just extract to sys: and restart the script to download fonts for Odyssey.

Hi everyone

I tried this version but hit the same problem. Sourceforge, as far as I can tell, no longer houses the fonts.

So I end up with "OWB will not work." after various statements that it cannot load the very first font (andale I think).

Does anyone know the site where I can fetch those fonts? Of course it will mean modifying the script.

Thanks in advance for any advice.

RD

Hi Robdel,

you must copy files from archive to sys: then launch the installation script in OWB drawer.

Sorry, it's my fault, I will add a Readme file to explain that.

Thank you. I will try your explanation tomorrow. If you hear no further from me it means that your suggestion worked! RD

Just had the same issue with certificate error when running the download font program.
I did not use the script, but did it manually by downloading the fonts exe files from here
https://sourceforge.net/projects/corefonts/files/the%20fonts/final/
And then use 7za to extract them and copy all the .TTF files to SYS:MorpOS/Fonts/_ttf/
