By installing SharedMediaAdditionalFonts, you add fonts to the list of fonts provided by LibSharedMedia to these addons. If your other addons do not use LibSharedMedia, this addon (SharedMediaAdditionalFonts) doesn't do anything.

You need another addon that makes use of SharedMedia's fonts for this to work. Basically, SharedMedia is a library that adds media to *other* addons. SharedMediaAdditionalFonts adds additional libraries to the ones provided by SharedMedia.
Example of addons using SharedMedia: Grid, Pitbull, Recount, ...
Can you add exprswyfree & Harlequin fonts to the addon pls, they both work great in wow, was a sad panda to see I had to add them again manually after update.
Hey elrandir,
These fonts have never been part of SharedMediaAdditionalFonts. Are you sure you were getting these by this addon specifically?
If you want them to be added, please send me a link to the fonts so I can analyze them and decide if they are eligible to be added.
Cheers!
I have been looking for ages for a digital font like this one
http://www.dafont.com/ds-digital.font
especially for the numbers since i want my damage font to look like that.
So far i have been without one, would it be possible to add something like that ?
It is, but we will have to find a font that supports most of accentuated characters (such as à, é, ê, ...). The one you linked unfortunately doesn't ;(
nvm i did it myself. thx anyway
Hello! Would it be possible to add SF Diego Sans? This font is included in Ark Inventory ( http://www.curse.com/addons/wow/ark-inventory ), but I've been unable to figure out how to move it from that addon to the general pool.
Thanks for your hard work!
Added in version 1.0.12!
Any chance I could talk you into adding Baar Sophia to the supported fonts? I swear it used to be in there, along with another Baar font. It's free from DA. If not I guess I'll just have to grumble. :P
Thanks!
Can't you just add them yourself?
I'm giving a look at the font and it seems pretty nice. I'll throw it in the addon soon!
Just released a version with Baar Sophia. I really like the font!
You might be the best!
Updated!
Addon still works with 5.0.4
I will update it this week ;)
I can't find directions on how to edit the lua to add custom fonts. Any chance you could please point me in the right direction? Thanks!
Thanks for the idea. I added it to the list of fonts supported by this addon.
First you should put your own fonts in the '<tt>fonts</tt>' folder of the addon.
Then you should create a file in the main folder of the addon named MyAdditionalFonts.lua (SharedMediaAdditionalFonts/MyAdditionalFonts.lua).
Inside, write something like that:
Now start the game and try using your new font!
