Hi Sony,

It's the recommend practice when installing a temporary font. I really don't think that it's a big deal, but I'm one of those who go "by the book", if you know what I mean.

BTW, I'll be up in the Chicago area most of next week. Can't wait for an Itlaian Beef. Miss 'em badly down here< g >.
