This post is meant to follow up on  a previous post where I
went on a tirade about the problems with Windows displaying
TTF's.

As a quick summary, I was ticked that I couldn't see many of
the characters in our font, although they would print.

After a bit of time to cool down, aided by a few kind souls
who steered me in the right directions, I've been able to at
least find part of the problem, although I've no idea how to
solve it.

The font will display completely and correctly on monitors
using non-XGA drivers.  For some reason I've yet to fathom, 
XGA drivers and the font don't mix.

Once again, thanks to all those who put up with the tirade 
and helped me.  If anyone else has had similar troubles, please
pass them along.  Misery loves company.
