Re: Moving Fonts From PC1 to PC2

Thanks Erwin. I decided to organize PC1 fonts into "base" fonts that are fairly standard to a fresh installation of Windows and Apps, and placed all other fonts (that I have added to this base) in D:\Fonts. Then copied D:\Fonts to PC2, synced, and retagged (rather than take a chance on som...
