Additional Fonts in RadEditor for MOSS

[ZipTX]

I don't seem to be able to add additional fonts to the RadEditor in Moss.  I've tried several options ...

The original file located at:
C:\Program Files\Common Files\Microsoft Shared\Web Server Extensions\wpresources\RadEditorSharePoint\4.1.0.0__1f131a624888eeed\RadControls\Editor

Has this tag:
<tool name="FontName" />

Telerik help "UsingTheToolsFile" states the tag should be this:
ms-help://telerik.radeditor.71.Net2/telerik.radeditor.71.Net2/UsintTheToolsFile.html
    <tool name="fontNames" >
       <font name="Arial" />
       <font name="Arial Narrow" />
       <font name="Arial Black" />
    </tool>

Telerik help "Fonts" states the tag should be this:
ms-help://telerik.radeditor.71.Net2/telerik.radeditor.71.Net2/Fonts.html

<fontNames>
   <item name="Arial" />
   <item name="Arial Narrow" />
   <item name="Arial Black" />
</fontNames>

Hello,

You should have no problems with the font names in MOSS. The only thing you need to check is if you are opening the correct tools file:

ToolsFile.xml is used in the WCM editor field and the editor Web Part.
ListToolsFile.xml is used in SharePoint lists (that includes wikis, blogs, etc.)

If you want to be sure just modify both files. You just need to add the <fontNames> tag at the end of the tools file, before the closing </tools> tag. For example:

...
  </contextMenus>
  <fontNames>
   <item name="Arial" />
   <item name="Arial Narrow" />
   <item name="Arial Black" />
  </fontNames>
</root>

This should make the editor dropdown display only the three listed fonts(see attached screenshot).

Note that this change only applies to the fonts dropdown list and does not affect the editor's default font. If you need to change that, take a look at the "Changing the default font" article in the editor documentation.
