    I have recently begun using CorelDraw 3.0 and would like to change
    the odd names it gives to fonts to the more correct names. I tried
    changing the names in the win.ini file but the changes were only used when
    I entered the fonts section of the Control Panel. What do I have to do to
    make other programs use the new names. Any help is appreciated. Thanks

I'm assuming you mean the names that are used within Corel (not outside,
i.e. in ATM or other packages like Pagemaker or whatever--Corel's fonts
aren't directly usable outside of Corel anyway).  This is very easy.  There
is a file in your Corel directory that contains pairs of filenames and font
names, and you just change the font name for whatever file: Ottawa becomes
Optima, etc.  I'm not at my PC, and I can't remember the filename, but it
should be fairly obvious: coreldrw.ini or something.  If you can't find it,
email me and I can give you more details.  Regards.

Chris clearly stated that he is referring to Corel DRAW 3.0, which uses
TrueType fonts.  Previous versions of Corel DRAW have included information
regarding changing of font names.  In those versions, the change was known
ONLY to Corel DRAW.  But since version 3.0 provides all those fonts which
can be shared with virtually all other Windows applications, it is very
desirable to change the names of the True Type fonts to the names that we
all know them by.  I'd like the answer also.
