All font files are located under "FontInfo" folder. The trial version has "mw6tech demo" as first news and some characters have horizontal bar inside, full version has no such issue. All news information are stored in a file called"conf.dat", this file format is pretty much like HTML format, you can use any text editor tool to generate this file, in order to let applet parse it properly, this file must comply with some guidelines. Each news entry is defined by tags values and must be in the same line, namely, do not punch ENTER key in middle of news entry, any blank lines and lines starting with "<!" are skipped. Take a look at following sample"conf.dat" file.
