What seems to be the font and font file name? Where did you get it from as what sort of file? ttf? otf? exe? or what? If it was a zip or rar, was there an exe in the zip/rar?

You see, when you only say 'this', effectively you say nothing worthwhile. It is like you go to the doctor and say help and for the rest you say nothing. Or you go to a shop and say 'I want that' without making clear what 'that' might ever be.

When you want help, be precise. Or keep quiet. Whatever, try to prevent that you act stupidly goddess.

Firt of all, I posted this into requests before the topic was moved. It may be because I didn't know (and still doesn't) the name of the font, don't you think? If you answered my request only to preachify, I don't need that. Otherwise, if you want to help me, here's the details you asked for.

On tumblr, the mobile themes are proposing a font called "Bodoni". When I tried to use it, I saw that this font (the screened one) appeared on the web preview. On mobile, everything was perfect, so, back on my computer, I went through my Fonts folder and deleted the Bodoni files. Even after that, the font was still the same. I reinstalled it via .tff and it didn't changed. I deleted it again, and, another time, never changed.

I'm not sure exactly what you did, or why you did it, and yet I am 100% certain that any written assistance I could offer you would make no difference, whatsoever.

... a mobile theme ... how does a theme move

If you are suggesting you have a font with a virus (are you?) rest assured, a font can not contain a virus as it is passive software. So the question was very straight forward: Where did you get it from as what sort of file? ttf? otf? exe? or what? If it was a zip or rar, was there an exe in the zip/rar?

The Kat wonders why you carefully avoid giving an answer ...

Because about 10% of all fonts contain Bodoni in their name.

The guy had trouble with a font on his phone, so he deleted fonts from his PC. To me, this is like a typist applying liquid paper to her monitor to fix a spelling error. I can't help someone who would do that.

He needs an unteacher to help him unlearn what he doesn't know first, and I don't know how to do that, without being sarcastic.

i'm not native english speaker, but where did he say he had trouble with a font on his phone ?
I understand it works perfectly on the phone, but not on the computer...

i think he just has shitty files in his Fonts folder that make the OS think they're Bodoni.
You should clean your Fonts folder mess, and everything should be fine.

Don't know Damien, but as you showed it is all rather foggy. We are dealing with a person who seems to be incapable of explaining into detail what is happening in clear and correct English. A person who seems to have no clue what type of application id downloaded and from where. Which doesn't understand the difference between passive and executable files.

Are we dealing with a carpenter who uses a saw to hit a nail into a piece of wood? Heeeh, what is wrong, that saw was what was at hand. A tool is a tool is a tool, uhhhh.

It would take too long to explain.
