Am seeing a problem with various font families from Font Folio 11: some members of these problem families fail to appear in WordPad on Windows (and all Microsoft Office applications, which is really where I want to use these fonts). Example: install BellGothicStd-Light.otf and BellGothicStd-Bold.otf in Windows/Fonts, but in WordPad only the Bell Gothic Light is available. The bold is not recognized. Uninstall the light, and *then* the bold becomes available. Same problem exists with Avenir and Frutiger 55. Probably others as well, I haven't tried more than these.

Is there some secret voodoo that has to be performed to get these OpenType Folio fonts to work in WordPad?
