Ok thanks. I show 126, is that the default amount, or can anymore be installed from the XP CD? The M$ article doesn't say how many XP can install via the CD.
Well I tried the XP CD anyway, and I only found TWO font types on it! They were not in the fonts folder on my HD. So I'd like know how I ended up with 126 fonts on my HD if the XP CD only has 2. (I also noticed something else very annoying, and that's when I search CD media for something, XP is NOT searching the optical drive, but my HARD DRIVE instead! It found the fonts on the CD, I repeat it found fonts **ON THE CD** here, in this path: C:\Documents and Settings\Test\Local Settings\Application Data\Microsoft\CD Burning\VALUEADD\MSFT\ And when I clicked to open containing folder, the path THEN was: D:\VALUEADD\MSFT\FONTS . So, I certainly do not understand that!) So at any rate, I was only able to install 2 more font types from the XP CD. Actually, like I said, there's only 2 fonts on the entire XP CD. Obviously XP installs more than that, so the fonts must be "encoded" and hidden some way on the CD, maybe in a .cab file. I opened the PDF file again in the (old) Adobe editor and the fonts it's "complaining" about are "SSPIEK+futura-medium", I don't know what that "SSPIEK" is, but I have heard of futura-medium and I don't see any futura in my font folder. I guess a starting point would be to search for some free futura-medium fonts.
