I'm going to try putting the project directory first in the include paths to see if that fixes it. Let y'all know the result. BTW. Did you know that changing the order of the include paths does not cause the wixproj to be checked out? I had to edit the wixproj by had to change the order. Ru

[WiX-users] Adding a font to the target machine

I have two font files that I'm trying to "install" to the target machine using WiX 3.0 RTM. I looked at the RegisterFonts option in WiX but that just lets me schedule the RegisterFonts parameter. How do I configure it to install the specific font files? Any help would be appreciated. --
