[comp.windows.ms] Fonts in Windows 3

v119l94u@ubvmsd.cc.buffalo.edu (Dennis G Crawford) (12/07/90)

	I don't mean this to sound like an idiotic question.. but, let me
explain my problem.  I have windows3 on a 386SX computer.  Now, I had to
re-install windows after doing a format on my hard drive.  I re-installed it,
but.. since I re-installed it, I cannot get the Helvetica font to work...!
(well, what I really mean to say is it won't work with WRITE.EXE-- I can call
it up when I go to install new fonts, and it looks ok.. but, it won't come up
as a choice in the WRITE menu. ) Also, I have other font's installed, and
similiarly I cannot use any of the OTHER fonts, either.  I'm sure it's
something really stupid that I'm not doing.. but, what is GOING ON!?!  Someone
help!!!

I believe that most Windows WP/DTP apps will only allow you to select fonts
which you have configured as being available on your printer (presumably to
enforce WYSIWYG.)
