@Scimmia, Perfect. Somehow the version I downloaded was 10240 instead of 10586. Working fine now. Thanks again

@rev0ltz, make sure you have the version of Windows 10 listed in the pkgver. If you don't, use git to checkout an old version of the PKGBUILD.

About 1/3 of the fonts (http://pastebin.com/pBjkaN6z) are failing the validity check for me and thus failing to install.
I have tried extracting them from my original media and from Microsoft's evaluation copy but no success.
I'm doing something wrong? Thanks

How do you copy out the system fonts like marlett.ttf from within a Windows 10 install?

@sl1pkn07, read the PKGBUILD

the file:// protocol don't work
and is possible add the version of each font in the font commentary? like a ttf-ms-win8/ttf-win7-fonts package
Bevan commented on 2015-11-19 14:17 (UTC)
@adomas: You have to copy the fonts manually from a Windows installation or CD. This is explained in the PKGBUILD.
If this error occurs although you copied the fonts, please see my comment from 2015-11-06 11:25.

tried solution of @dstclair but I could not solve it :(

@step-2, the package doesn't contain them because Windows 10 doesn't contain them.

FAQ, please read before posting:
I get an error that the sources cannot be downloaded: Please read the instructions on the top of the PKGBUILD.
Some fonts are missing in my copy of Windows (e.g., holomdl2, corbel, chandra, ...): It seems that Microsoft distributes some fonts only with some Windows versions. You can just comment out the corresponding line in the PKGBUILD and then build with "makepkg --skipchecksums".
Some fonts have different checksums: We keep the checksums synchronized with our own Windows installations that are regularly updated. Different Windows versions, different ISOs etc. may contain fonts in different versions/variants. Just build the package using "makepkg --skipchecksums".
Why does the version not correspond to the latest Windows 10 build: If fonts have not changes between builds, there is no reason to change the version number of this package.
Why are some fonts (e.g., traditional chinese, japanese etc.) not included here, not even in the corresponding split packages: We currently only include fonts that are installed on a standard Windows installation, without additional feature-on-demand packages (see: https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/typography/fonts/windows_10_font_list).
