Hi Trevor,

I tried the Font Wizard to test the problem. It didn't work for me either. I'm using Windows XP Pro.

With a bit of checking I found the following is one of the sites which has the fonts.

http://oooconv.free.fr/fontooo/packs/

I downloaded the AllMsFonts.zip just to check if you may face further problems.

Checking the zip file you will see it contains exe files, which I would guess are not likely to run on a Mac. I don't know what are in the other zip files.

I tested the andale.exe program and it installs the font directly into the C:\WINDOWS\Fonts folder in Windows XP. I picked this font as it was not installed on my computer. I didn't want to run the Verdana program as I already have verdana installed and didn't want to create a potential issue.

If you have a Windows machine which doesn't have the Verdana fonts, you could run the program and then possibly manually install the files on your Mac.

I hope this helps.
