Hello Arachnids:
Does Arachne have a problem in loading certain kinds of font faces?
While surfing tonight I came upon a page that initially loaded and
displayed very nicely. It appeared as a very nice web page until I
scrolled down towards the the bottom, until I reached the point where
Arachne encountered a call to the "geneva arial" font.
When this happened the screen suddenly went black and an error message
appeared in white letters:
Error loading font file:
c:\arachne\system\PROPBN2
Then our three friends with the smiley faces and the crossbones appeared.
You too may check it out if you go here:

I tried to fix the problem by editing the page so as to change all calls for
the "geneva arial" font face to simply "arial". The same error occurred,
except that this time the font file named in the error message was
"c:\arachne\system\PROPNN3".
IMHO, either there is something wrong with the way Arachne attempts to load
these font files, or my system just ran out of memory. Any opinions as to
what might have occurred?
