HELP: Lost my MT Fonts for WfW 2.0 !

Okay, today I received Windows 3.1 (ya!). Before I installed it
though I thought I would start things over with a "clean slate." Thus,
I erased my Windows and Word for Windows directories and then installed
Windows and then Word for Windows.
 
All went well, except now that when I got to the Equation Editor in
Word, it tells me that it cannot find the MT Extra and MT Fences fonts.
This causes the Equation Editor  to print something totally different
than what it should (i.e. the equation editor is no longer useful). I
have tried to re-define which fonts the Equation Editor uses but it
continues to complain about not having the MT Extra and MT Fences fonts.
 
Anyone have a clue as to what the program is? ANOTHER THING, I use to have
a PCLFONTS directory (which I believe was created when I originally
installed WfW 2.0), that directory is no longer with me...is that the
problem? Is so,  what is the cure?
 
Any help would be appreciated.
 
BTW, outside of this problem, Windows  3.1 is pretty *neat*. The TrueType
fonts are really nice (I got the additional Fonts too), the file manager
is different (better?), and the clock has some added features. All in all,
a pretty decent .1 upgrade. If this Equation Editor mishap is fixed I will
consider the money and time well spent.
