LionScribe, Thanks for all your help. I did as you said and the font works for a new empty project.
Regarding the older OS versions (pre 5.0 I presume) I will need to use just a font and not a font family. To clarify. I will need to check if the OS is 5.0 or up and use a font family if so. If the OS is less than 5.0 I need to use a font. Do I have this correct? Looks like I'll have a bit of work converting resources and importing my source into my new project. Sigh.
