Re: OTF fonts?

[Dov Isaacs <isaacs@xxxxxxxxx>]

Gerald,

As we have previously discussed on these lists, the TrueType (it really
isn't an OpenType font) Symbol font provided by Microsoft with Windows 2000
and XP is part of Windows' "secret sauce!" If you delete it, all hell
breaks loose. Whether you like TrueType or not, you must have it installed.
Restore it and everything will be OK again.
