UIR display

I have LabWindows/CVI 8.0. When I create a distribution everything works fine except that the UIR displays funny on other systems.
 
The text (control lables, list boxes,etc.) are readable, but not easily readable. The graphics seems to be missing some component.
 
The other systems have an earlier 7.0 CVI engine, but I did install the 8.0 on one system and it made no difference. Any ideas.

The NI fonts map to fonts that are allready installed on the machine.  Moving an application to another machine can change the appearance of the application.  Look at the reply by Luis in this thread

This is why I forego using the NI meta fonts and use fonts I know are going to be on the target machine. That means pretty much the standard Windows distribution fonts, Arial, Times New Roman, Courier New, etc.

If you want to use different fonts and you have ones you can freely distribute, you could always have your installer put them on the target machine for you.
