I wish to copy SAS fonts (monospace,monospace bold and SAS font for codepage 1252)
from a PC with Windows 98 to one with XP. The only way I know how to send them via
mail is to write the DOS names, but according to information on this site it will
be difficult to install them properly without the icons. How can this be done?
