In the opart 3 fonts.ini file, under UnitInfoMediumFont and UnitInfoSmallFont have you set WindowsFont to Y?

That's normal. Nothing you can do about that (except switch back to bitmap fonts) Pity, but it is as it is.

Did you try pressing the "Ctrl" key and the "A" key at the same time to get SS runes in the editor?

But then, as Telumar said, you might need to switch back to the bitmap fonts.

That's a different bitmap font which is available here: http://www.the-strategist.net/RD/docs/mod/index.php

I've been trying the LotR maps with a Tolkien font and while it looks great, it gets a bit cramped.

I have one question: In the scenario editor, while in text mode, how do you change the font size? There are four PlaceNameFonts, but I seem stuck with only one.

The "how to" for that is described in the What's New.pdf. See item 9 of section VIII of the 3.4 part of that document.

Of course, you must be using Windows fonts for those Placename fonts - that is selected in the Opart Font.ini file.

Ah, now I see... "9. Alternate Placename Fonts and Bitmaps"

Thanks!
