Dominic, 

      But even on Macs wasn't that just a way to stop people who weren't too
      knowledgeable about fonts from creating faux fonts?




No, it was a real potential problem with output. I was a victim of the consequences at least once, and as a result, I just never use it anymore. On Macs, due to the way fonts were created and accessed, you were less likely to create faux fonts.

But I don't know if whether non-recognition of style links at output is or was a Windows issue as well.
