I just recently installed the addon "Nice Damage (font)" specifically to change the font of the numbers for the damage that you see on the screen, it works fine, but I can't figure out how to change the font style that it comes on. If you use it, and change the font styles, this should be a fast answer for you but if you want to help and do not use it, then this is what the readme says...

Readme:

"The file named "font.ttf" will replace your default WoW damage font.
To swap between the fonts just rename the font you want to have to "font.ttf", replacing the old one. "

-

I've tried renaming the font that I want it to be to "Font2.ttf" but nothing happens, it can't get off of the default? Can't figure out what im doing wrong, please reply, with details, step by step cause i'm not good with this ****. Appreciated.

Going by what you wrote from the readme, Font2.ttf != Font.ttf... you must name the font as font.ttf   (no numbers, etc).

I tried it, didnt do anything. Is there a certain folder I need to rename something in? All I'm doing is renaming the font number I want in the folder where the addons are stored...It looks like this

Backup Fonts(Folder)

font <----- This is the one currently in use.                          TrueType Fontfile

font2 <---- This is the one I want applied.                           Truetype Fontfile

You need to back up font.ttf to a safe place and remove it from the directory.  Now take the font you want to use and rename it to font.ttf and place it in that directory.

Hate to say it but I dont understand any of that. Where is a safe place? And first of all, I dont see any file anywhere with a .ttf - - Look above, thats exactly how the folder looks... None of the files are named "font.ttf" . . . So I honestly dont understand how the file currently in use is even working.

Rippy I'm sorry.  You apparently need quite a bit of PC help.  I don't think I need to define what a "safe place" is on your own PC.  your PC apparently does not have show file extensions turned on.  if it did, you'd see all the font files you listed in your post are in fact font.ttf, font2.ttf, etc.  With that, you should now be able to figure out the rest.
