<blockquote type=cite class=cite cite>Hi:<br>
I recently upgraded to MikTex2.8 under Windows Vista. I wanted to
place<br>
some personal fiont and style files in the "localtexmf"
directory (where<br>
we usually place them). To my surprise, neither the
"localtexmf" nor the<br>
"texmf" directory was availabe there. So, in which
directiory (exact<br>
location in WIndows Vista) in MikTeX2.8 shoould I place my personal font
files<br>
and style, so MikTeX will see them after I refresh the
database?</blockquote></html>
