Sadly, I see "Times Italic 48" in black-on-yellow. Do you really have a font called "Times"? The TrueType font is actually called "Times New Roman". There is a "substitution" list for common font names, but I'm not sure I'd want to rely on it. -- Tim Roberts, t...@probo.com Providenza & Boekelheide, Inc. _______________________________________________ python-win32 mailing list python-win32@python.org http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-win32
