Things to try, based upon similarly bizarre behavior from the font palette variously in times past: 1-Try again immediately after a reboot 2-Clean your INI files, and try again, preferably after a reboot 3-Remove all currently installed TTF fonts, then install only the ones you know you want. There's a REXX file in msfontpack1_2.zip on Hobbes to do that more easily than using that brain-dead font palette. 4-Make sure your Verdana.ttf file is July 2001 or newer, 149,752 bytes. The open source fonts from http://dejavu.sourceforge.net/wiki/index.php/Main_Page make a very nice addition to your palette too. -- "All have sinned & fall short of the glory of God."
