Hi,

I'm trying to write an installer in WiX for the first time and I have a
few questions about .msms and fonts.  I put the fonts I install into a
merge module because they're shared across a couple of products and they
hardly ever change.  Was that the right way to do it or should I put
them into a wixlib?

My other question is when I link everything together I get a warning
about my font.  I think I know what the problem is but I don't see how
I'd fix it.  Right now there is only one font in the msm for simplicity.
Here's the warning: light.exe : warning LGHT1076 : ICE07:
'TLArabic.ttf.4D6F9D86_D91F_4AD7_85B7_3DA18C19DCDE' is a Font and must
be installed to the FontsFolder. Current Install Directory:
'FontsFolder.4D6F9D86_D91F_4AD7_85B7_3DA18C19DCDE'

Here's the code that I think it's throwing the warning:
In my main .wxs file I have:
<!--  Windows Fonts folder  -->
<Directory Id='FontsFolder'>
        <Merge Id='Fonts' Language='1033' SourceFile='fonts.msm'  />
</Directory>

And my merge modules xml looks like this:
<Directory Id='TARGETDIR' Name='SourceDir'>
        <Directory Id='FontsFolder' FileSource='H:\Shared Fonts' >
                <Component Id='TLArabic'
Guid='1550E1EC-124B-4D88-B480-420D5D9EAF9E'>
                        <File Name='TLArabic.ttf' TrueType='yes' />
                </Component>
        </Directory> 
</Directory>

Any help would be greatly appreciated. 

Thanks,
Matt
