Hi Calvin --

Erik,
I tried your recommendation and the font went into the fonts folder without any problem, but it did not show up on the font list in programs. This is a Win2000 machine. I did a restart and still did not show up. I copied the fonts to another directory and then deleted them from the font folder and then used the install font procedure and then they worked. Did you have to go throught this procedure or did just copying the font work for you. I think I still need something programatic to make the font show up without user interaction.

That's really odd, as I've seen this work quite often. Well, to cover all bases, after copying it into the Fonts folder, make Windows happy and place a call to
AddFontResource. Then, broadcast WM_FONTCHANGE so all running apps can update any caching they're doing.
