Windows manages fonts differently than mac.

Nothing is being used for font management. On these Windows machines, fonts aren't activated, they just sit in c:\winnt\fonts and are used by programs.

As I understand the problem, each user (there are 8 or so) has a slight variation of, for example, the Goudy font. One might have Goudy 19443 and another has Goudy 19446, so documents created using one version say "font missing" when opened on a different machine.
