Hey guys,
So, I've been using Google Chrome Portable (and regular Google Chrome) for a while now as my primary web browser, and I've been loving it.
I do have a bit of a problem though, and I was hoping someone here might be able to help.
One tool I regularly use is the BibleStudyTools.com Interlinear Bible (as well as other tools on that site that use Greek and Hebrew.)
The site uses fonts to emulate Greek and Hebrew text, instead of using Greek Unicode. (i.e. A font is used to make V appear as Ω, so Greek words can be made with Latin characters)
My problem is that these fonts install locally, so I would need to install them on every computer I would use. As you all know, that takes away from the portability significantly.
So my question is, is there any way to install fonts into GoogleChromePortable directly, or am I doomed to install fonts on every computer I need to use BibleStudyTools.com on?
Thanks for your help!
Theophilus

Portable fonts are coming to the platform shortly and will work with all portable apps negating the need to try and jump through hoops to get an individual app to recognize specific fonts.
Sometimes, the impossible can become possible, if you're awesome!
Awesome!
Do you guys have any idea if there's an ETA yet?
there's a couple of sayings one is it's done when it's done, the other is the gears of John grind slowly but they do grind, be patient it will come (and that brings up another thing, good things come to those who wait :P)

I use it all the time because I calibri is the best font in the world and its a shame most XP computers don't come with it.

Put your favorite fonts in the fonts directory inside, and they should all work (It took me days to figure that out when I got it some time ago :P)
They have worked in every app I've used so far.
Your welcome!
