I do not believe the problem is with the fonts themselves, because removing
"Academy Engraved LET Fonts" results in the same error(s) with the next font
(and I tried this a few times, so I received the error with about four different
fonts).  I have not edited any font preferences.  iDVD came preinstalled and the
only other application I installed which is bundled with extra fonts is Adobe
Creative Suite CS3.

How do I change which instance of the freetype library is being used and/or
confirm your suspicions?
