Hello,

I'v tried to add some fonts to a ppd-file and then reinstalled it with
an inf-file. If I want to edit the substitution-table in the
printer-preferences then I can only see the standard-fonts, but not my
added fonts. For example I've added those fonts:

*Font Tahoma: Standard "(001.007S)" ExtendedRoman ROM
*Font Tahoma-Bold: Standard "(001.007S)" ExtendedRoman ROM

I even tried to remove the following:

*?FontQuery: "
 save
   { count 1 gt
      { exch dup 127 string cvs (/) print print (:) print
        /Font resourcestatus {pop pop (Yes)} {(No)} ifelse =
      } { exit } ifelse 
   } bind loop
   (*) = flush
 restore
"
*End

*?FontList: "
save
  (*) {cvn ==} 128 string /Font resourceforall
  (*) = flush
restore
"
*End


And also I tried to set the filesystem to false.

Where does Windows gets its fonts?

Wolfgang

PS: sorry for the bad english
