I have a partial answer for you, but you'll have to wait about 18 hours for
it. I have a file at work that lists the fonts that get installed with
Win95 (basic 28) and popular applications (WP6, WP7, etc.). Will send it to
you and post it too. This can serve as somewhat of a guide. Our shop
doesn't have any MACs, and we're pretty much a WordPerfect operation, so it
is biased to our intranet usage.
It would be neat if people could add to the list. When I post it, I'll try
to include suggestions for developing additions.
