If you've been getting errors like this:

File "PIL\ImageFont.pyc", line ---, in load_path
IOError: cannot find font file

The fix is to simply copy the files helvetica-10.pil, helvB08.pil, helvetica-10.png and helvB08.png into the "dist" directory.

It may also be needed to add current path in the load_path() function in ImageFont.py (otherwise it searches in sys.path directories only).
 '''for dir in sys.path+['.']''' instead of '''for dir in sys.path'''
