For Font Name choose any descriptive name.
File will browse your PC to locate the font file.
4. Navigate to Font Mappings->Create Font Mapping Set.
5. Mapping name is the name you will give to a set of fonts.
6. Mapping code is the internal name you will give to this set.
7. Type: 'PDF Form' for PDF templates. 'FO to PDF' for all other template types.
