I was challenged a couple of days ago to install a Type 1 font.

Here's how I did it:

1. Open new Project in Installshield ( Flexera Software)
2. INSTALLDIR = [ProgramFilesFolder]Lexicon Font
3. Create new Feature -  new Component ( Destination: INSTALLDIR)
4. Add the Font files ( afm, inf, pfb, pfm ..) in component
5. Create Custom Action (51)
   Property Name = InstallFont
   Property Value = [INSTALLDIR]
   Location : after CostFinalize 
6. Create CA ( 3110)
   Set objShell = CreateObject("Shell.Application")
   Set objFolder = objShell.NameSpace(Property("CustomActionData"))
   Set objFolderItem = objFolder.ParseName("LexiconNo1ATxt-Regular.pfm")
   objFolderItem.InvokeVerb("Install")
7. Deferred Execution in System Context ( After StartServices )
