Comment:
DirectWrite is one of two font rendering APIs used on Windows (the other
is GDI). It doesn't quite work yet. The system fonts are not loaded, and
bundled fonts are loaded. But all text is rendered as squares, even in
browser chrome—except, curiously, Georgian text. [http://qwikfix.co.uk
/sky-contact-number/ this] ticket attempts to solve an orthogonal problem,
which is that it is possible to enumerate the system fonts installed on a
user's machine.
