That's fantastic everyone. Thanks for all your help.

I renamed /usr/shared/AbiSuite/fonts.

Then I recreated the fonts directory and symlinked all the files from my MS
core fonts directory.

Everything then worked.

If I had realised this was just a configuration problem I would have posted to
the users mailing list instead of the developers list. Sorry for the hassle.

Obviously there's no font name conflict issue at all :-)

Adam
