I had a similar problem with a fresh install of Tiger on a new computer. It had the fonts my app was using but they weren't officially installed, so my app looked terrible. I wasn't running any other apps, so I don't know if it was just Rev or whether it affected all apps. If you go to /Library/Fonts (that's the Library folder in root directory of the hard disk, not the one in your user folder) you will see a whole load of font files. Double-click on the Times or TImes New Roman or whichever font you are using. You may see a sample of this font appear in a small window with a message at the bottom saying "(not installed)" and an Install button. Click "Install" then log out & log in again. This may fix the problem. If it persists, it may be a permissions problem in the font file itself. You may need to set the permissions for the font to Read/Write for all users.
