Re: [pygame] Can't find default font -- py2exe'd pygame game

Ooops, I forgot to mention, you have to package it into your
library.zip in the pygame directory, but that may not be easiest thing
to do.  The easier solution is to just do
pygame.font.Font('freesansbold.ttf',...) when you create the font
(assuming the ttf file is in the same directory as your executable.

Hi. I copied the freesansbold.ttf
<cid: part1.00030406.09040909@xxxxxxxxx> file to my dist directory, but
it didn't work. :( I guess I'll have to use a different font. What would
you suggest?
