Refresh

Refreshes your view of les and folders within the Flyer Filestore.

Reformat File System

Reformats (erases) all data—les and folders—in the Filestore. Before reformatting be-

gins, a dialog warns that this is a permanent erasure and asks you to conrm (click OK)

before proceeding. After reformatting the Filestore, which could take several minutes,

the FH Flyer head performs a soft boot. Check the status message displayed at the bot-

tom of the Flyer Files window for operational status before continuing le or marking

operations.

Reboot Flyer

Performs a soft boot of FH Flyer’s operating system. This process will take 30 seconds to

complete; check the status message displayed at the bottom of the Flyer Files window for

operational status before continuing le or marking operations.

Sort

Rearranges all Filestore les and folders alphabetically. Files contained within folders or

subfolders are also sorted and listed alphabetically.

Fonts

The release of Flyer rmware version 2.06 adds the ability to render TrueType

(.ttf) fonts in stand-alone

mode and store those fonts in the Flyer Filestore or in a network share folder. To ensure the best marking

performance, TrueType fonts are cached in Flyer RAM each time Flyer is powered up or rebooted. Open-

Type

(.otf) and PostScript

(.pfb) fonts cannot be used in stand-alone marking applications.

If the font specied in the mark le is not loaded in the cache, an error message is generated in the Main

Message Log and the text object is marked using the Simple stroke font. For this reason, you should always

test mark les before beginning a production run to ensure proper marking results.

Loading font les into the Flyer Filestore

To load TrueType (.ttf) font les into the Flyer Filestore, perform the following steps:

Connect to your Flyer head using WinMark Pro.

Right click in the Filestore and choose Make New Folder from the contextual menu.

Name the new folder “Flyer Fonts” (without the quote symbols). The folder name is case-sensitive

and must be entered exactly as shown.

Open Windows Explorer and navigate to the C:\WINDOWS\Fonts folder.

Highlight the font you wish to load into the Flyer Filestore.

From the Edit menu, click Copy.
