I have Photoshop CS2 on my Windows 2000 PC and I want to get running the same on a Windows XP box. I need ALL the same settings, fonts, plugins, etc…
I have the plugins and actions transfered which seems to work. I was getting a message when opening an image created on the Win2k PC saying the fonts were missing but I seemed to have fixed that too (I hope). I copied the fonts from WINNT\fonts to Windows\fonts but some wouldn’t copy, I was getting errors saying the fonts were corrupted so they were skipped. I also matched the fonts in "Program files\common files\fonts". Also when I open most images I’m getting a message saying the image is in CYMK mode and the colors are not editable, it gives me 3 choices on what I want to do. I’m sorry I don’t have the XP PC here so I don’t know the messege word for word but the options were something like compatability mode, make editable (I think), and I don’t remember the third! I’m hoping someone experienced enough with the software would know what I’m talking about!
My questions are:
– Are there incompatabilities with fonts from Windows 2000 to XP? If so, what would be the best way to find out what I need and to replace them? – Should I select compatability mode for the CYMK messege?? – Where else are the preferance files I would need to make things work seemlessly?
Thanks, and I hope that someone who’s been through this nightmare before can offer advice!
