Re: Can't use my new installed fonts!

Do you have a printer installed that can print OpenType and TrueType fonts
and is it selected as the default printer?

Go to the Install Printer dialogue and install one of the drivers for a HP
LaserJet. It does not matter which one. Specify File as the port when
asked.

Let us know if you can then see True type or OpenType fonts listed.
