install fonts that were used in setup dialog

Hi,
How can I install fonts that I'm used in my setup dialogs without using pre-install prerequisite section?
I don't want to use pre-install prerequisite section because I don't have any access on prerequisite dialog elements to personalize it for my native language.

any help will appreciated in advance

Re: install fonts that were used in setup dialog

Hi Armin,
I don't have any access on prerequisite dialog elements to personalize it for my native language.
I don't understand this reason. Can you please give me an example of what you mean?

If the target machine doesn't have your dialogs font installed and you're unwilling to use pre-install prerequisites, there's nothing much you can do. Also, I'm not sure the font will be available right away, the pre-install prerequisite may need to perform a reboot as well.

All the best,

Re: install fonts that were used in setup dialog

Hi Mihai,
my setup is in persian,but dialogs of pre-install prerequisite are in english, and as far as I know texts of these dialogs can't be change.
I use a persian font in my setup dialogs that probably there is not in the target machine , so I look for a way that automatically install that font before my setup dialogs will be displayed.
Do you have any suggestion for this scenario ?

thanks for your attention

have a good time

Re: install fonts that were used in setup dialog

Hi Armin,

This is true, but you can set the bootstrapper silent(maybe the font installation as well) and the main installer with full UI. This setting is available from the Dialogs page -> Bootstrapper UI.
Set "Run as administrator" from the Install Parameters page if needed.

All the best,
