Try renaming the extension manually by deleting the ".pdf" part and leaving it as ".ttf" only - just an exercise.

>>> Downloaded and saved it after renaming as a .pdf file. Won't open , the reason is " it is either not a supported file type or because the file has been damaged.."

Rename it as .ttf NOT .pdf

After removing the ext .pdf file works superb in MS Office Word, Thanks for sharing this file Nomadabhi.

+1, any way to change as the default key for using it in applications other than Ms Office ?

Any luck for mac os?

Fantastic. !

Thanks a ton for sharing.

It does not seem to work in Windows Vista and 7 editions!!

If it is working for anyone using these OS's please help, cuz it not working on mine, and I am using the Enterprise Edn of both the OS's.
