Dear Aaron,
 
Once the font is in a map, there is no way to update it.  You would need to make a new map, draw anything that includes the new font, then cut/paste the old map.

Thank you very much for clearing this up for me. Now it makes sense. My understanding is that TEST.GFN file is 'attached' to the map and even if you modify TEST.GFN, it will not attach the new version of TEST.GFN to the map because there already is a TEST.GFN attached to the map. My next question is there any way I can remove the old version of TEST.GFN so it can attach the new version of TEST.GFN?
 
P.S. This also solves something I wondered about long ago; in the DOS ages, I found that the plotter used what was in the GFN file instead of the BFN file.
