How to open MFM file?
An often recurring problem with VTeX Multiple Master Font Metrics is that MFM is not associated with the correct program file. Thus, when you open MFM, the program selection wizard or some other program starts. This problem can be easily remedied.
The first thing you should do is just "doubleclick" on the MFM file icon you want to open. If the operating system has an appropriate application to support it and there is also an association between the file and the program, the file should be opened.
Step 1. Install VTeX
The first step is to check if the computer has the VTeX program installed. The easiest method is to use the system search engine by entering the program name VTeX in it. If it is not, installation may solve the problem, as most applications create file associations during installation. Later in this article you will find a list of programs that can open MFM files.
Programs to open MFM file
Remember to download programs supporting MFM files only from verified and safe sources. We suggest using the websites of software developers.
Step 2. Create association of VTeX with MFM files
If the application is or has been freshly installed, but the MFM file still does not use the VTeX program, it means no association. The association can be created using the drop-down list available by right-clicking on the file and selecting Properties. The window will show, among other things, the type of the file and the information by which the program is used to launch the file. Changes can be made using the "Change" button. If there is no software on the list, simply select "Browse" and manually select the directory where the application is installed. The "always use the selected program ..." field will set the VTeX application as the default for handling the MFM file.
Step 3. Update VTeX to the latest version
If, however, after binding VTeX with VTeX Multiple Master Font Metrics there were still problems, you should update the program to the latest version. This can be done using the application (if it provides such options) or from the MicroPress Inc. website and install the latest version.
Step 4. Check for the following problems with the MFM file
If the above steps do not help, you can assume that the file itself is not correct. This could be due to the file itself, the cleanest issues are:
The affected file may be 0 KB or smaller than expected. This is most often caused by a problem while downloading the MFM file. The only repair option is to download the file again.
The computer may have fallen victim to a computer virus or hacker. A virus scan using an up-to-date antivirus program should fix the problem. If this is not possible, you can use the online scanner. However, it is important to scan the entire system, not only the file MFM or the program directory. As a result of the scan, sometimes it is not possible to recover MFM files, which are deleted if there is a backup of this file, then after restoring it, it must also be scanned.
A typical compatibility error - the program does not support the older version of the MFM file. These problems are known and are often very easy to fix using the software developers's website.
There can be many reasons for this. Depending on the type of file, it is necessary to repair it accordingly. Some programs offer the ability to automatically repair MFM file corruption. The easiest way is to restore the file from a backup, if there is one, or contact MicroPress Inc.
When reading, a message appears that the file was encrypted or corrupted. The encrypted file MFM except for the special designation, works normally, but only on the device where it was encrypted, before transferring it to another machine, decryption is required.
The operating system protects files in some locations (e.g. the root of the system partition) against unauthorized access. While there is usually no problem reading such a file, it may not be possible to save it. Copying the MFM file to another location will fix the problem.
This problem only occurs with more complex files. Some file types can only be opened in one program at a time. Closing other programs should help. If the error persists after closing other programs, wait for a while. However, some background programs may block the MFM file while scanning. If nothing helps, please reset the device.
